About Text to HTML Converter
The Text to HTML Converter transforms plain text into properly structured HTML code, automatically handling paragraph wrapping, line break conversion, and URL detection. This tool is essential for web developers, email marketers, and content managers who need to quickly convert text content into web-ready HTML. It intelligently detects paragraph boundaries from blank lines and wraps them in <p> tags, converts single line breaks to <br> tags, and can automatically convert URLs and email addresses into clickable links. The whitespace preservation mode wraps content in <pre> tags for code and formatted text. HTML entities are properly escaped to prevent rendering issues and XSS vulnerabilities.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are paragraphs detected?
The tool identifies paragraphs by looking for double line breaks (blank lines) between text blocks. Each block is wrapped in <p> tags. Single line breaks within a paragraph are converted to <br> tags.
Does it auto-detect and link URLs?
Yes! When the 'Auto-link URLs' option is enabled, the tool automatically detects http/https URLs and email addresses in your text and converts them to clickable <a> tags with proper target='_blank' and rel='noopener noreferrer' attributes.
Are HTML special characters escaped?
Yes, the converter properly escapes characters like <, >, &, and quotes to their HTML entity equivalents (<, >, &, "). This prevents broken rendering and protects against cross-site scripting (XSS).
