Also, the docs show it as having a leading underscore (_decode_entities), but it seems to work without.
decode_entities and _decode_entities are two different functions with two different interfaces.
#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict;
use warnings;
use HTML::Entities;
use Test::More tests => 3;
my $str = q!amp & 59 ; quot "!;
is( decode_entities($str), 'amp & 59 ; quot "' );
is( join( '-', decode_entities( $str, $str ) ),
join( '-', 'amp & 59 ; quot "' , 'amp & 59 ; quot "' ) );
{
my $str = $str;
_decode_entities( $str, { amp => "&", 59 => ";" }, 0 );
is( $str, 'amp & 59 ; quot "' );
}
__END__

How (Not) To Ask A Question
-
Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
-
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
