The escape() function is deprecated. Use encodeURI() or encodeURIComponent() instead.
The unescape() function computes a new string in which hexadecimal escape sequences are replaced with the character that it represents. The escape sequences might be introduced by a function like escape . Usually, decodeURI or decodeURIComponent are preferred over unescape .
1. The unescape() function is used to decode that string encoded by the escape() function. The escape() function in JavaScript is used for encoding a string.
Definition and Usage The escape() function was deprecated in JavaScript version 1.5. Use encodeURI() or encodeURIComponent() instead. The escape() function encodes a string. This function makes a string portable, so it can be transmitted across any network to any computer that supports ASCII characters.

At least they are fairly obvious opposites.
