HTML to URL 🔗

Convert small HTML into URLs directly with HTML to URL! This innovative tool makes good use of Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability to transform HTML snippets into clickable URLs effortlessly.

Why HTML to URL?

1. People are searching for it! Check out the discussion on Quora: Is there any way to convert a HTML link into a URL link?

2. Explore the concept of URLs containing data versus pointing to it.

3. No backend processing required! The server serves only HTML and JS directly as a static site, resulting in faster loading.

How Does it Work?

Similar to image data URLs, data is compressed, base64 encoded, and placed in the URL.

Is it Innovative?

Certainly! There's no similar product as per my knowledge.

Problems / Disadvantages?

1. Vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting attacks due to webpage content being dependent on URL contents.
2. URLs can become horrendously long!

How Would I Solve These Problems? (Possibly in a Future Version)

1. Add a checksum-like value at the end of the URL, stored in the backend and checked every time a URL is rendered.
2. Implement efficient data compression or template-based techniques to overcome long URLs.
