Run to update output.

Copy result = output only. Copy report = output + settings.

Flow
  • Scan input text for XML-reserved characters.
  • Replace symbols like &, <, >, and quotes with entities.
  • Return encoded output safe for XML embedding.
Example

Worked example: encode special characters

  1. 1 Input: A&B <item> "quoted"
  2. 2 Escape mode encodes reserved symbols into entities.
  3. 3 Output: A&amp;B &lt;item&gt; &quot;quoted&quot;

The output can be inserted into XML without breaking syntax.

How
  1. Paste plain text into the input panel.
  2. Run XML escape conversion.
  3. Copy escaped output into XML payloads.
Cases
  • Embed user-provided values in XML templates safely.
  • Prepare SOAP test payloads with valid escaping.
  • Avoid malformed XML caused by unescaped ampersands.
Avoid
  • Double-escaping values already encoded with entities.
  • Escaping full XML documents instead of just text values.
  • Ignoring attribute-context rules in downstream templates.
FAQ
Does xml escape send my input to a server?

No. XML Escape handles the input in your browser whenever possible, so routine conversions, previews, and copy actions stay on your device instead of being sent to Calctrove servers.

Which characters are escaped?

At least &, <, >, and quote characters depending on context.

Should I escape complete XML files?

Usually no. Escape content values, not full XML structure.
