## About HTML Entity Encoder/Decoder

This free online tool converts text to HTML entities and decodes HTML entities back to text, all in your browser. HTML entity encoding replaces characters with special meaning in HTML (&, <, >, ", &apos;) with safe text representations called entity references. This is essential for preventing broken markup and XSS attacks when inserting user-generated content into web pages.
