Frequently Asked Questions
Is my HTML sent to a server?
No. The tool uses the browser's built-in DOMParser API to strip tags entirely locally. Nothing is transmitted over the network.
Does it decode HTML entities like &, <, >?
Yes. Because the tool parses HTML with the browser's native parser, all standard HTML entities and numeric character references are decoded automatically into their Unicode equivalents.
Can I preserve line breaks from headings and paragraphs?
Yes. Enable "Preserve line breaks" to insert newlines after block-level elements: p, div, h1–h6, li, blockquote, pre, and br tags.
What happens to <script> and <style> content?
Script and style tag contents are automatically excluded. Only visible text nodes are extracted, matching what a user would actually read in a browser.
Can I import an HTML file instead of pasting?
Yes. Drag and drop any .html, .htm, or .txt file onto the input area. The file is read locally — no upload occurs.
What is the "Collapse blank lines" option?
When enabled, consecutive empty lines are reduced to a single blank line, keeping the output clean without losing paragraph separation.
