Representing such characters as HTML entities is fine.

The data between <script> and </script> is, in HTML documents, CDATA, so
HTML entities are not decoded. You either have to encode the document using
a character encoding which supports the characters you want (such as
UTF-8), configure your server to emit a suitable HTTP header, and use
literal versions of those characters or represent those characters as
\uXXXX (where XXXX is the Unicode character specified by four hexadecimal
digits), or \XXX (three octal digits representing the Latin-1 character),
or \xXX (two hexadecimal digits representing the Latin-1 character).
