title: jQuery .append() not rendering html entity
body: <p>I have a variable with html in it like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var html = '&lt;div&gt;Hello, you&amp;#39;re awesome!&lt;/div&gt;';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to append it to an element <code>$("body").append(html)</code> for some reason it's not decoding the HTML Entity. I tried <code>$("body").append($(html));</code> and that didn't work. My text is stuck inside the element and I can't individually put it together.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to append html with a text-based entity inside it into another element, and have the html entity render on the page?</p>
  
  <p>I've read a bunch of posts on stackoverflow reguarding html entities and it seems that none of them include the html &amp; text within a variable like this.</p>
