Character2html

Overall, this script provides a simple interface for users to input text, convert non-ASCII characters to HTML entities, and view the converted output. It's particularly useful for converting characters with Unicode values greater than 127, such as Arabic, Chinese or Japanese characters such as ?? or © to their HTML entity representations.

function convertToEntities() is triggered when the "Convert" button is clicked. It retrieves the input text from the corresponding <textarea> and initializes an empty string to store the converted output. The function iterates through each character of the input, checking if its Unicode value exceeds 127. If so, it converts the character to its corresponding HTML entity (e.g., &#1234;) and appends it to the output string. Otherwise, it appends the character as is. Finally, it sets the converted string as the value of the output <textarea>.

 

The <button> has an onclick attribute binding the Htmlentity() function to its click event, enabling the conversion process when clicked. The output <textarea> is set to readonly, preventing direct modification of its content.
