About this Tool

HTML entities are used to display reserved characters in HTML that would otherwise be interpreted as code. For example, < becomes &lt; and > becomes &gt;. This encoding is crucial for preventing XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attacks when displaying user-generated content. This tool supports both named entities (&amp;) and numeric entities (&#38;).
