Description Michael Schaufelberger CLA 2011-05-26 02:38:37 EDT 
The method htmlDecode(String) in StringUtility should replace "&amp;" at the very end instead of the beginning.

Example: The current implementation yields
"<a < b>" for htmlDecode("&lt;a &amp;lt; b&gt;"). The correct result would be "<a &lt; b>".
Comment 1 Judith Gull CLA 2013-01-01 06:22:59 EST 
This bug was already fixed with commit for bug 364545.  "&amp;"  s replaced at the very end. Added tests.
