Why Encode HTML Entities?

Security | Encoding HTML entities prevents cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by ensuring special characters are rendered as text, not executed as code.

Correctness | Characters like <, >, and & have special meaning in HTML. Encoding them ensures your content displays exactly as intended.

Compatibility | HTML entities ensure that special and non-ASCII characters render consistently across all browsers and platforms.

Features

Full Encoding | Encodes all HTML special characters including <, >, &, quotes, and non-ASCII characters to their entity equivalents.

Smart Decoding | Decodes named entities (&amp;, &lt;), decimal entities (&#123;), and hexadecimal entities (&#x7B;).

Instant Stats | See the number of entities processed, character counts, and size differences at a glance.
