FAQ
Why escape HTML?
Unescaped < and > are parsed as tags by the browser, which can break layout and create XSS risks. Escaping lets you display the original code safely.
Which entity formats are supported?
Decoding supports common named entities (&, ), decimal entities (') and hexadecimal entities ('). Unknown entities are left untouched.
Is my text uploaded?
No. Escaping and decoding run locally in your browser.
