What is HTML Escaping?

HTML escaping is the process of converting special characters used in HTML into their corresponding HTML entities. This is crucial for displaying code snippets on a webpage without the browser interpreting them as actual HTML tags. For example, the character < is converted to &lt;.

Security

Prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks by escaping user-generated content before rendering.

Proper Display

Ensure your code snippets and special characters are displayed exactly as intended in any browser.

Fast & Secure

Professional server-side processing ensures accurate escaping and unescaping of all HTML entities.
