About HTML Decode Text
HTML Decode Text converts encoded HTML entities back into regular characters and readable text. It is useful when copied snippets, templates, or exported markup contain entity codes instead of plain characters.
How It Works
Use the tool in three simple steps:
- Paste encoded text - Add HTML text that contains entities such as ampersands or brackets.
- Click Decode - The tool turns entities back into regular characters.
- Copy the result - Use the decoded text in documents, code notes, or editors.

-
Restore quotes
Input: "tea" & 'cake' Output: "tea" & 'cake'
