Description
Describe the Issue
We have a challenge that asks campers to replace symbols like & with the relevant HTML entity &. It's a neat little challenge, BUUUUUUT...
The in-app console we render sanitises the entities back to HTML. So with correct code, campers still see & instead of &.

- Enter the following code.
- Open browser console.

function convertHTML(str) {
let newStr = "";
for (let char of str) {
if (char == "&") {
newStr += "&";
} else if (char == "<") {
newStr += "<";
} else if (char == ">") {
newStr += ">";
} else if (char == '"') {
newStr += """;
} else if (char == "'") {
newStr += "'";
} else {
newStr += char;
}
}
return newStr;

console.log(convertHTML("Dolce & Gabbana"));

The in-app console should render `Dolce & Gabanna
