The HTML Encode tool provides a straightforward way to convert text containing special characters into HTML-safe encoded entities. Encoding replaces characters such as <, >, &, and quotes with their corresponding HTML entities so that content is displayed correctly in browsers.
This process is commonly used in web development, form handling, documentation, and content management systems where raw text must be shown without being interpreted as markup. Without encoding, special characters can break layouts or create unexpected rendering behavior.
Users paste text into the tool, and the encoding process converts applicable characters into their HTML entity equivalents following standard rules. This helps ensure content is safely displayed and handled across web pages and applications.
The encoding runs directly in the browser without requiring installation. Results appear instantly and can be reviewed before being inserted into HTML files, templates, or databases.
