FAQ

Why do I need to encode HTML entities?

Characters like <, >, and & have special meaning in HTML. If user input containing these characters is inserted into HTML without encoding, a browser may execute it as code  Ea cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.

Should I encode all characters?

Generally you only need to encode the five critical characters: &, <, >, ", and '. Over-encoding regular text can make it harder to read in source code.

What is the difference between named and numeric entities?
