How does the HTML Cleaner fix malformed HTML and unclosed tags?

It uses standard browser DOMParser parsing to automatically reconstruct malformed syntax trees, close unclosed tags, and repair invalid element nesting.

Does it clean attributes like dir="ltr" and inline style tags?

Yes! It strips non-standard attributes like dir="ltr", lang (except on <html>), inline style attributes, class names, and id tags, reducing code weight significantly.

Which tags are replaced or converted?

Deprecated tags are converted to modern semantic tags: <strike> becomes <del>, <tt> becomes <code>, <acronym> becomes <abbr>, <dir> becomes <ul>, and <listing>/<xmp>/<plaintext> become <pre>.

Are my code snippets uploaded to an external server?

No, 100% private. All parsing, tag reduction, and attribute stripping run locally in your web browser.
