Solução de problemas
Entities appear double-encoded like &amp;
Solução
The text was already escaped before you escaped it again. Unescape first to get the original characters.
Not all special characters are being escaped
Solução
This tool escapes the five core HTML characters. Extended entities like © or are not in scope.
Unescaping does not convert all entities
Solução
This tool handles the five core entities. Rare named entities like → may not be decoded — use a full HTML parser for comprehensive decoding.
Perguntas frequentes
Why escape HTML?
Unescaped characters like < and > are interpreted as HTML tags. Without escaping, user-submitted text containing <script> tags can execute arbitrary JavaScript — a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.
Which characters are escaped?
The five core HTML special characters: & → &, < → <, > → >, " → ", ' → '.
What is the difference between HTML escaping and URL encoding?
HTML escaping converts characters to HTML entities for safe rendering inside HTML. URL encoding converts characters to %XX hex format for safe use in URLs.
Should I escape or sanitize user content?
For displaying user content as plain text in HTML, escaping is sufficient. If you need to allow some HTML tags, use a trusted HTML sanitizer library.
Is HTML escaping enough to prevent XSS?
Escaping is the primary defense when inserting text into HTML content. However, the correct escaping strategy depends on context — JS strings, HTML attributes, and URLs each require different rules.
What does &amp; mean?
&amp; is a double-encoded ampersand — it renders as & in the browser. This usually occurs when content is escaped twice.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. All escaping and unescaping is performed in your browser using JavaScript string replacement.
Can I use this to prepare content for JSON inside HTML?
For JSON in HTML (e.g., inside a <script> tag), use JSON.stringify and ensure the string is placed correctly. HTML entity escaping alone is not sufficient.
