Frequently Asked Questions
Does it also decode HTML entities?
Yes — HTML entities like &, , and < are decoded to their plain text equivalents as part of the stripping process.
Does stripping HTML preserve whitespace and line breaks?
Block-level elements (headings, paragraphs, divs) produce line breaks. Inline elements (spans, anchors, bold) are removed without inserting spaces. The tool normalizes multiple consecutive spaces.
