Numeric HTML entities

Nearby workflows on Toolcore

• HTML entity encode / decode — Escape or decode HTML entities—ampersands, tags, quotes—client-side. Useful when the payload needs another alphabet or escape format.
• XML entity decode — Decode common XML/HTML named and numeric entities. Useful when the payload needs another alphabet or escape format.
• Unicode & JS escapes — Encode UTF-8 to \u{hex} escapes or decode \u{…}, \uXXXX, \xNN, and \n \t—client-side. Useful when the payload needs another alphabet or escape format.
• Encoding tools — Hub index: Base64 & URL, Base64url, Base32, Crockford, LEB128, ASCII85, Z85, Base58, base-36, bencode, Morse, quoted-printable, URI, Punycode/IDN, Unicode escapes, data URLs, MIME, hex, HTML entities, JWT, JSON helpers, crypto. Useful when the payload needs another alphabet or escape format.

Common use cases

• Transform sample text with numeric html entities while debugging legacy email, Usenet, or protocol payloads.
• Compare output size and alphabet against Base64, Z85, or hex dumps on the same input without leaving the encoding hub.
• Decimal entities beside HTML entity encoder.
• When the payload also needs a sibling encoding, open the related encoding-html-entities page from More tools below.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Treating UTF-8 paste as raw binary

  These tools encode the UTF-8 bytes of your text unless the page states otherwise. For arbitrary byte arrays, convert from hex first.

• Mixing alphabets between encodings

  Base91, Z85, uuencode, and Base64 use different symbol sets—decode with the matching tool before re-encoding.

• Pasting secrets into shareable prefill links

  URL query parameters may appear in browser history. Use Load example for demos; avoid ?q= links for production keys.
