Convert XML entities back to readable text and check restored content for unknown entities, malformed sequences, and XML compatibility issues.
XML Unescape Tool transforms text for safer use in web, API, configuration, spreadsheet, or serialized-data workflows. It reports conversion counts, output size, syntax issues, and a data integrity score.
Escaping improves format safety, but it does not replace input validation, authentication, authorization, or contextual security review.
Example input: Tom & Jerry <friends>. The result area shows the converted value plus integrity, size, and validation metrics.
Processing happens locally in the browser. The tool calculates character analysis, syntax validation, output byte size, expansion, and format-specific warning signals.
Escaping improves format safety, but it does not replace input validation, authentication, authorization, or contextual security review.
Paste XML escaped text and decode standard entities such as amp, lt, gt, quot, and apos.
XML only defines a small entity set unless a DTD declares additional entities. Unknown entities should be reviewed.
Decode the entity text after extracting the attribute value, then check whether quotes and ampersands restored correctly.
Yes, numeric decimal and hexadecimal entities can be converted back to Unicode characters.
Run the unescape tool and review malformed sequences such as missing semicolons or unsupported entity names.
