Encode and Decode HTML Entities Securely
HTML entities are used to display reserved characters (like `<` or `>`) safely in a web browser without breaking the HTML code. Our HTML Entity Encoder/Decoder allows you to convert plain text containing code snippets into safe HTML entities, or revert garbled HTML entities back into readable plain text.
When to Use This Tool?
- Displaying Code: If you run a coding blog and want to show HTML tags on the page without the browser executing them.
- Security: Encoding user input helps prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.
- Fixing Text: Convert messy strings like `©` back into their readable forms.
