HTML Entity Encoder & Decoder
Convert special characters to HTML entities and decode them back. Everything runs locally in your browser.
What is HTML Entity Encoding?
HTML entities are special character codes that represent reserved or special characters in HTML. For example, the less-than sign (<) must be encoded as < to prevent the browser from interpreting it as the start of an HTML tag.
This tool helps you encode special characters like <, >, &, quotes, and accented characters into their HTML entity equivalents (e.g., <, >, &). You can also decode HTML entities back to their original characters.
Unlike other online converters, qtoolkit.dev processes everything client-side in your browser. Your data never leaves your machine, making it safe for sensitive content.
Common Use Cases
Displaying code snippets in HTML, preventing XSS attacks by escaping user input, rendering special characters in emails, and ensuring proper display of international characters.
