This is deliberately being done to prevent scripted usage. What
exactly are you needing to do this for?

You're basically going to have to execute the entire block of
JavaScript code, and then decode the entities to get to what you want.
Doing it manually is pretty easy; doing it automatically will
virtually require a language interpreter.
