Frequently Asked Questions

When do I need to encode HTML entities?

Whenever you're inserting user-provided text into an HTML page. Encoding prevents XSS attacks and rendering issues from characters like <, >, and &.

What's the difference between named and numeric entities?

Named entities like &amp; are easier to read. Numeric entities like &#38; work for any Unicode character, including those without a named form.
