HTML Entity Encode / Decode
Turn special characters into HTML entities and back — safe for embedding text inside HTML. Everything runs on your device, nothing is uploaded.
Type something to begin.
Which characters get encoded?
By default only the five characters that are unsafe inside HTML markup: &, <, >, " and '. Turn on "Also escape non-ASCII characters" to convert every character outside the basic ASCII range (accents, Turkish letters, emoji, CJK) into numeric entities like ğ — useful for old systems that mangle UTF-8.
What does Decode understand?
Both named entities (&, ©, … …) and numeric entities, decimal (') or hexadecimal ('). Anything that isn't a recognized entity is left untouched.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. Encoding and decoding happen entirely in your browser with plain JavaScript — nothing is uploaded or logged.
