What is HTML Escape?

To prevent XSS attacks and ensure proper rendering, certain characters (like <, >, and &) must be converted into HTML entities. Our tool provides a two-way conversion, allowing you to both escape raw text for safe inclusion in HTML and unescape existing entities back into their original characters.
