HTML Entities Converter (Encoder/Decoder)
The HTML Entities Converter is a tool that converts special characters ( <, >, &, etc.) in text into HTML entity codes (e.g., <) for browsers to interpret correctly, or decodes these codes back into normal text.
Key Features
- Encode: Converts the
<character to<or<format, ensuring the browser displays this character as text instead of code. - Decode: Converts encoded characters like
"back to the"character.
Usage Areas
- Security: Encoding is done to safely display text received from users within HTML (XSS protection).
- Presentation: Used to display code blocks as text on a web page.
