Double quote gets replaced by &quote;

Question

My JavaScript variable contains a string:

{"start":{"lat":19.0759842,"lng":72.87765630000001},"end":{"lat":18.5206624,"lng":73.8567415},"waypoints":[[18.8753235,73.52948409999999]]}

But when I show it into HTML component, it looks like:

{"start":{"lat":19.0759842,"lng":72.87765630000001},"end":{"lat":18.5206624,"lng":73.8567415},"waypoints":[[18.8753235,73.52948409999999]]}

if you are try dispay json data in view blade in laravel try to do this

<php echo $data ?>

var text1 = '{"start":{"lat":19.0759842,"lng":72.87765630000001},"end":{"lat":18.5206624,"lng":73.8567415},"waypoints":[[18.8753235,73.52948409999999]]}';
var text2 = text1.replace(/"/g, '\"');

alert('Your data\n' + text1);

alert('Required data\n' + text2);

Answer 3

Output the string as HTML instead of plain text so the HTML entity " is rendered correctly.

var s = "{"start":{"lat":19.0759842,"lng":72.87765630000001},"end":{"lat":18.5206624,"lng":73.8567415},"waypoints":[[18.8753235,73.52948409999999]]}";

//Incorrect with jQuery
$("#incorrect-jquery").text(s);

//Correct with jQuery
$("#correct-jquery").html(s);

//Incorrect with plain JavaScript
document.getElementById("incorrect-js").textContent = s;

//Correct with plain JavaScript
document.getElementById("correct-js").innerHTML = s;

div {
  margin-bottom: 20px;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<strong>Incorrect with jQuery</strong>
<div id="incorrect-jquery"></div>

<strong>Correct with jQuery</strong>
<div id="correct-jquery"></div>

<strong>Incorrect with plain JavaScript</strong>
<div id="incorrect-js"></div>

<strong>Correct with plain JavaScript</strong>
<div id="correct-js"></div>

use decodeURI javascript function to show example

var s= decodeURI('your string');
