About HTML Encoder

HTML encoding is the process of converting special characters to their corresponding HTML entities.

This tool converts characters like <, >, &, ", and ' to their HTML entity equivalents. HTML encoding is essential for preventing cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and ensuring that HTML code is displayed correctly. The encoder handles all special characters that could interfere with HTML parsing.

Common Uses:

Displaying code snippets on web pages
Sanitizing user input before displaying it on a website
Preparing content for HTML emails
Preventing XSS attacks
Displaying HTML as text rather than rendered elements
Safely including user-generated content in web pages
