What is the HTML ↔ Text Converter?

The HTML ↔ Text Converter is a lightweight editor for writers, support teams, and developers who need to move between rich markup and readable plain text. HTML → Text parses your snippet with the browser DOMParser, reads body text, and optionally keeps line breaks similar to innerText, rewrites <a href> nodes into [label](url) Markdown before extraction when enabled, normalizes spaces, and can collapse runs of blank lines. Text → HTML escapes &, <, >, and quotes when requested, optionally detects http(s) URLs and wraps them in anchors, splits double-newline paragraphs into <p> blocks, and can insert <br> for single newlines inside each paragraph. Both directions show character and word counts on the active output.

Export and preview

Click Convert after choosing options in either mode. Use Copy on the read-only output or download a .txt file from HTML → Text and a .html file from Text → HTML. In Text → HTML you can enable a sandboxed iframe preview; the iframe uses an empty sandbox attribute so scripts from pasted content do not execute—still treat untrusted input carefully.

Privacy

All conversion happens in your browser. Your HTML or text is not sent to Dynamic Duniya servers for this tool.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will complex CSS or components survive HTML → Text?

No. The tool extracts text content from the parsed DOM, not visual layout. Tables and lists become linearized text similar to what a browser would show as plain text.

Is the generated HTML safe to embed on my site?

Output is only as safe as your input plus the escaping and sandbox preview options. Always sanitize on the server before persisting user-authored HTML.

Is the HTML ↔ Text Converter free?

Yes for typical personal and work use on Dynamic Duniya.
