Frequently Asked Questions
Escaping converts characters like <, >, &, and quotes into their HTML entity equivalents (e.g. <, >, &) so they display as text on a web page instead of being parsed as HTML markup.
No. All escaping and unescaping is done locally in your browser. Your text never leaves your device, fully protecting your privacy.
The tool escapes the five core HTML characters: <, >, &, single quote, and double quote, which are the characters that can break HTML structure or cause injection issues.
Escape when displaying code snippets or user input on a page to prevent XSS; unescape when you have entity-encoded text and need the original readable characters back.
Completely free. This is a pure frontend online tool - no registration required, no payment needed, just open and use.
The escape mode covers the standard XML/HTML entity set. Unescape mode reverses those entities back to their original characters, including named entities like & and numeric ones like <.
