HTML Entities Encoder
Escape HTML characters like brackets and quotes to secure HTML entities. Free.
Key Capabilities
Why encode HTML entities?
HTML entity encoding converts special characters (<, >, &, ", ') into their entity equivalents (<, >, &, etc.). This prevents XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attacks and ensures HTML code displays correctly when embedded in web pages instead of being interpreted as markup.
Who uses this tool professionally?
Web developers sanitize user input before rendering in HTML templates. Technical writers encode code snippets for display in blog posts and documentation. Security engineers test XSS prevention by encoding potentially malicious HTML strings.
What characters does it encode?
The tool encodes all HTML special characters: < (<), > (>), & (&), " ("), ' ('). Optionally, it can encode all non-ASCII characters as numeric entities for maximum compatibility.
Is my data kept private?
Yes. All encoding happens locally in your browser. Code snippets and HTML data are never sent to any server.
