How do I unescape HTML entities in a string in Python 3.1? [duplicate]

You could use the function html.unescape:

In Python3.4+ (thanks to J.F. Sebastian for the update):

import html
html.unescape('Suzy & John')
# 'Suzy & John'

html.unescape('"')
# '"'

In Python3.3 or older:

import html.parser    
html.parser.HTMLParser().unescape('Suzy & John')

In Python2:

import HTMLParser
HTMLParser.HTMLParser().unescape('Suzy & John')
