Can this be used with jQuery?

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
in jQuery I was wondering if there is a function that will convert the following string into<br />
html friendly characters<br />
<br />
var myString=&quot;@£¥®©®&quot;;<br />
<br />
but using jquery it will convert that string to the following<br />
<br />
@&amp;pound;&amp;yen;&amp;reg;&amp;copy;&amp;r<wbr />eg;<br />
<br />
So basically any Symbol in a string would get converted into the HTML friendly characters<br />
<br />
Here is the chart below<br />

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
