HTML Encoder / Decoder Online

Working with HTML can get tricky when special characters break your layout or show up incorrectly on a webpage. That’s where our HTML Encoder / Decoder tool makes life easier.

This tool helps you convert HTML characters into safe, encoded formats and also decode them back to readable HTML in just one click.

What Does This Tool Do?

Our HTML Encoder / Decoder has two main jobs:

🔹 Encode HTML

When you encode HTML, special characters like <, >, &, or quotes are converted into HTML entities such as &lt;, &gt;, and &amp;.
This is useful when:

  • Displaying HTML code as plain text
  • Preventing HTML from being executed
  • Avoiding layout or rendering issues
  • Improving security against unwanted HTML injection

🔹 Decode HTML

Decoding does the opposite. It converts encoded entities back into normal, readable HTML.
Perfect when:

  • You receive encoded content from APIs or databases
  • You want to edit or understand encoded HTML
  • You’re debugging HTML output

How to Use the Tool

  1. Paste your HTML or text into the Input box
  2. Click Encode or Decode, depending on what you need
  3. Instantly see the result in the Output box
  4. Copy the result or download it as an HTML file

Example

Input (HTML):

<h1>Hello & Welcome</h1>

Encoded Output:

&lt;h1&gt;Hello &amp; Welcome&lt;/h1&gt;

Decoded Output:

<h1>Hello & Welcome</h1>
