DEVELOPER BENCH
Parse supplied HTML character references in a detached browser element and return decoded text without rendering it into the application page.
WHAT THIS DOES
Runs entirely in your browser.

Collections
Saved on this device only. Turn on sync to carry them to another device.
BATCH / ONE VALUE PER LINE
Up to 200 lines, one at a time, in this browser. Each line takes the place of text and everything else stays as you set it. Nothing is uploaded, and the row limit is not exceeded silently.
METHOD / LOCAL RUN
A detached local `<textarea>` decodes browser-supported HTML character references into its text value.
Boundary: This decodes character references only. It does not sanitize, execute, validate, or safely render supplied HTML markup.
The calculation or transformation runs in your browser using the values entered above. No input is sent to UtilityForge for this tool.

FAQ
This decodes character references only. It does not sanitize, execute, validate, or safely render supplied HTML markup.
No. This published tool runs locally in your browser. UtilityForge does not send the values entered in this workbench to a server.
No. This workbench runs in the page: Encoded HTML text are read by the code your browser already downloaded, and UtilityForge receives neither the values nor the result.
Yes, and it is enforced rather than advertised: Encoded HTML text (100,000 characters). The limit is a browser input limit on a tool that runs on this device, so nothing is truncated after being sent anywhere.
