The HTML Escape / Unescape Tool allows you to quickly convert HTML code into escaped entities or restore escaped text back into readable HTML. This tool is ideal for developers, bloggers, students, and anyone working with HTML content who wants to prevent code execution or display HTML as plain text.

With just one click, you can escape special HTML characters like <, >, &, ", and ', or unescape encoded HTML entities back to their original form.

What Is HTML Escaping?

HTML escaping is the process of converting special characters into HTML entities so they are displayed as text instead of being interpreted by the browser.

Example:

  • <div>Hello</div>&lt;div&gt;Hello&lt;/div&gt;

This is especially useful when:

  • Displaying code snippets on websites
  • Preventing HTML injection or XSS attacks
  • Storing HTML safely in databases

What Is HTML Unescaping?

HTML unescaping reverses escaped entities back into normal HTML code.

Example:

  • &lt;h1&gt;Welcome&lt;/h1&gt;<h1>Welcome</h1>
