About this page
Convert text to safe HTML entities or decode entity references locally.
How to use it
- Choose whether to encode or decode the input.
- Paste a non-sensitive sample in the expected character encoding.
- Run the conversion and inspect reserved characters, spaces and Unicode text.
- Test the result in the exact URL, document or application context that will consume it.
How to interpret the result
Encoding changes representation so data can travel safely through a particular format. It does not make the underlying information confidential.
Privacy and limitations
Encoded text can still contain scripts, credentials or unsafe content. Decode untrusted values cautiously and never treat encoding as encryption.
Recommended next step
Copy only the required component, test one round trip, and validate the complete destination value before publishing it.
