How to use Convert HTML Entities to Integers
- 1. Paste the HTML entities. Enter one or more numeric HTML entities, like 12, into the input pane. They can be strung together or spread across multiple lines.
- 2. Read the decoded integer. The tool decodes each numeric character reference back into the digit it represents and reassembles the resulting integer, so 12 becomes 12.
- 3. Copy the plain integer. Copy the decoded value into your code, spreadsheet, or wherever the raw integer is more useful than its escaped HTML form.
When to use Convert HTML Entities to Integers
Convert HTML Entities to Integers reverses numeric character references, turning strings like 12 back into the plain integer 12. Use it whenever scraped or escaped web content hides a number behind HTML entity encoding.
- Cleaning up scraped web content. A scraper pulled page text that still contains numeric entities instead of plain digits. Decode them here before loading the numbers into a spreadsheet or database.
- Debugging an email template's number formatting. An email template engine sometimes escapes digits into HTML entities during rendering. Decode a suspicious-looking output field to confirm the actual number a customer would see.
- Reverse-engineering an obfuscated web page. A page hides numeric values like prices or quantities behind entity encoding to make scraping harder. Decode a captured entity string to see the real value during analysis.
- Verifying an entity-encoding function. You are testing code that converts integers into HTML numeric entities and want to confirm the round trip decodes back to the original number.
