String Escape Tool
Escape or unescape strings for JavaScript, JSON, HTML entities, RegEx, URL encoding, and CSS. Warns if input looks already escaped.
Modes explained
- JavaScript — escapes quotes, backslashes, newlines, tabs, and control characters for use inside JS strings.
- JSON — similar to JS but strictly follows the JSON spec; wraps in
JSON.parsefor unescaping. - HTML Entities — converts
&,<,>,", and'to entity references. - RegEx — escapes special regex metacharacters so a string can be used safely in a pattern.
- URL — applies
encodeURIComponent/decodeURIComponentfor query strings and path segments. - CSS String — escapes quotes and newlines for use inside CSS string values.
