Encode special characters to HTML entities or decode them back to text.

About HTML Entities

HTML entities are used to display reserved characters in HTML. For example, < becomes &lt; and & becomes &amp;. This prevents browsers from interpreting them as HTML tags or special characters.

Common Entities

  • &lt; — Less than (<)
  • &gt; — Greater than (>)
  • &amp; — Ampersand (&)
  • &quot; — Double quote (")
