About this calculator

HTML entities are text codes that represent characters a browser would otherwise interpret as markup — an unescaped angle bracket or ampersand in page content can break the HTML parser or open the door to cross-site scripting (XSS). Encoding replaces each reserved character (ampersand, less-than, greater-than, and quote marks) with its named or numeric entity so the browser renders it literally instead of acting on it.

Web developers use this kind of encoder whenever user-supplied or dynamic text (comments, form input, code snippets shown on a page) needs to be inserted into HTML safely, and it's a standard step in templating engines and CMS platforms that don't auto-escape output.
