HTML Extractor

What is an HTML extractor?

An HTML extractor reads source code or snippets and extracts text, link addresses, image resources, h1 to h6 headings, and metadata such as title and description. Choose plain text, JSON, or CSV output to organize web material, collect article content, export image lists, gather links, and review page information. Source is processed in the current browser without deploying the page first.

How to use the HTML extractor

  1. Paste page source into the HTML area or load the example to see the fields for each extraction type.
  2. Choose text, links, images, headings, or metadata. Text is useful for reading and copying; structured types are useful for export and further processing.
  3. Choose plain text, JSON, or CSV, review the record count and empty-field setting, then copy or download the result.

Main HTML extraction use cases

  • Extract article text

    Text mode removes tags, scripts, styles, and comments while keeping readable text and optional line breaks for notes or documents.

  • Organize links and images

    Link mode extracts href, text, and title; image mode extracts src, alt, and title, with CSV export for filtering.

  • Analyze headings and metadata

    Heading mode reveals page hierarchy, while metadata mode lists title, name, property, and content for a quick SEO review.

  • Structured export

    JSON preserves field structure, CSV works well with spreadsheet tools, and plain text is convenient for reading and pasting elsewhere.

HTML extractor frequently asked questions

Does it extract text from script and style?

No. Text, links, images, headings, and metadata extraction exclude script, style, and HTML comments so code strings are not mistaken for page content.

Why do some records look empty?

A link may have href without visible text, an image may have no alt, and a meta tag may have only one field. With Keep empty fields disabled, records with no useful field are filtered.

Is source uploaded to a server?

Extraction runs in the current browser, and the tool does not actively upload source to generate text or structured results. Follow your security policy for sensitive pages and review external resources referenced by the source.
