Probably String.FromHTML() of gb.util component
/comp/gb.util/string/fromhtml - Gambas Documentation

Maybe UnQuote() will do?
/lang/unquote - Gambas Documentation

As all Html() does is "quote" a string so it's safe for html.

or maybe FromUrl() might do what you need?
/lang/fromurl - Gambas Documentation

Indeed because it is not a native function but part of the component gb.util.

I have just added a gb.util string link to the "See also" part of the "String functions" page (it will not show on the wiki until tomorrow.)
