About HTML entity encoder

HTML entities are text representations of characters that have special meaning in HTML, such as < (<), > (>), & (&), and " ("). Using raw special characters inside HTML content can break markup or introduce cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. The HTML Entity Encoder converts any text containing special characters into safe entity-encoded form, and decodes entity strings back to plain text. This is essential when embedding user-generated content in HTML, displaying code samples on web pages, writing email templates, and preparing text content for safe insertion into the DOM.
