About the HTML Entities Decoder

HTML entity decoding turns sequences like < and & back into their characters. Use it when exports, CMS fields, or emails give you escaped text that is hard to read.

How to use

  1. Paste the entity-encoded text.
  2. Decode it.
  3. Copy the readable result.
  4. If you still see entities, the content may have been escaped more than once.

Tips

  • Decode carefully before publishing — decoded <script> text can become active HTML if inserted unsafely.
  • Pair with the encoder when building escaping/unescaping workflows.

FAQ

Why do I see &amp; in the page? That usually means the ampersand was escaped for HTML and then escaped again somewhere in the pipeline.
