Distinguish displayed text from executable markup
HTML entities let special characters appear as text. Documentation can display a tag instead of having the browser interpret it as an element.
An example to check
Input and settings
<b>Tom & Jerry</b>Expected result
<b>Tom & Jerry</b>Encoding converts angle brackets and & into entities. Decoding restores the source, but inserting that result into HTML still requires context-appropriate handling.
Scope and limitations
- Entity encoding is not complete XSS protection. HTML text, attributes, JavaScript and URL contexts require different rules.
- Encoding twice turns < into &lt;. Identify the current representation before repeating transformations.
