HTML ENCODER DECODER

Encode or decode HTML character entities to safely embed code strings inside HTML layouts.

Escape Special Characters safely with HTML Entities

To safely display code snippets on a webpage without executing them as live code, you must encode special characters (like < and &) into HTML entities. Decoding converts them back into plain text.

HTML Encoding Examples

Raw text: <h1>Hello</h1>

Encoded output: &lt;h1&gt;Hello&lt;/h1&gt;

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why do we encode HTML?

HTML encoding prevents cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by displaying tags as raw text instead of executing them in the browser.

Is this tool safe?

Yes, encoding and decoding are performed locally in your web browser. No data is sent to external servers.
