HTML Decode

The "HTML Decode" tool on Tolz.io is a practical and user-friendly resource for converting HTML-encoded text back to its original, readable format. This guide will walk you through the steps to use this tool effectively, making it a straightforward process even for those new to HTML.

Step 1: Access the Tool

• Start by navigating to the Tolz.io website. Once there, locate the "HTML Decode" tool from the list of available web tools. This tool is typically found under sections labeled as 'Web Development', 'HTML Tools', or similar categories.

Step 2: Prepare Your Encoded HTML Text

• Before using the tool, ensure you have the HTML-encoded text that you need to decode. This text usually contains HTML entities – special strings that start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;) – representing characters like '<', '>', '&', etc.

Step 3: Enter the Encoded Text

• On the "HTML Decode" tool page, you will find a text box or input area. Here, paste or type in the HTML-encoded text that you want to decode.

Step 4: Decode the Text

• After entering the encoded text, look for a button typically labeled 'Decode', 'Convert', or something similar. Click this button to initiate the decoding process.

Step 5: View the Results

• Once you click the decode button, the tool processes the encoded text. The decoded text – where HTML entities are converted back to their original characters – will be displayed on the screen. This usually appears in a separate box or area on the tool's page for easy comparison.

Step 6: Use the Decoded Text

• After decoding, you can copy the resulting text and use it as needed. This might involve pasting it back into your HTML code, a content management system, or any other platform where the original characters are required.

Additional Features:

• Some versions of the tool might offer additional features like directly copying the decoded text to the clipboard, saving the output, or even re-encoding the text if needed.

Tolz.io's "HTML Decode" tool is designed to be efficient and secure. It processes the text on the spot without storing any user data, ensuring that your information remains confidential. By following these simple steps, you can easily decode HTML entities, simplifying your web development and content editing tasks.
