About HTML Entity Encoder & Decoder

HTML entities are special codes that represent characters with meaning in HTML — like <, >, &, and ". If you include these characters as raw text inside HTML without encoding them, the browser interprets them as actual HTML syntax, which can break your page or create security vulnerabilities. This tool encodes text to safe HTML entities and decodes them back to readable characters instantly.

There's also a handy reference table of common HTML entities — symbols, accented letters, mathematical characters, and more. Click any row to copy the entity code directly. Useful for web developers, content editors, template builders, and anyone who needs to safely embed special characters or user-generated content in HTML documents.
