ASCII Validator

World's Simplest ASCII Tool

A simple browser-based utility that validates ASCII data. Just paste your ASCII text in the input area and you will instantly get the ASCII status in the output area. If the input contains only ASCII characters, you'll get a green badge, otherwise a red badge. Fast, free, and without ads. Import ASCII – get ASCII status.

Tool Options

Extended ASCII

Expand the acceptable characters from 7 bits to 8 bits (0 to 255).

What Is an ASCII Validator?

This web application validates ASCII data. It runs through each input character and checks if it belongs to the 7-bit ASCII character set. If the symbol's ASCII code is in the range from 0 to 127, the result is positive and a green badge is shown, if the code point is 128 or more, the result is negative and a red badge is shown. If you get a red badge, then each non-ASCII character is displayed on the screen together with its code point and the position in the text. You can also validate the extended 8-bit ANSI character set. By activating the Allow Extended ASCII option, you'll expand the range of acceptable values from 0 to 255. Asciiabulous!

Validate a Proverb

In this example, we validate a proverb and get a positive result. Indeed, the input string uses only lowercase and uppercase Latin letters, as well as the dot character. All these code positions belong to the ASCII table range from 0 to 127.

Good things come to those who wait.

Extended ASCII

In this example, we enable the extended ASCII (ANSI) option to validate a German quote by Franz Kafka. The ANSI table includes all 128 7-bit ASCII characters plus 128 8-bit characters. Additional symbols include glyphs from foreign languages (such as German letters ä and ö), as well as special characters (such as copyright sign © and quotation brackets «»). Since the extended ASCII option is activated, the badge is green, but if you turn off this option, the badge will turn red as only the basic ASCII symbols will be allowed.

Invalid ASCII

This example validates the input text and shows a red badge as the result. The text contains two characters that aren't in the ASCII table. The glyph 🍫 is a Unicode character and has the code position U+1F36B and the emoji 🤔 has the code point U+1F914. Both values do not belong to 7-bit or 8-bit ASCII sets, therefore, regardless of the extended ASCII option's state, the result is always negative.

Nine out of ten people like chocolate 🍫. The tenth person always lies 🤔.
Invalid symbols: symbol: 🍫, code point: 1f36b, position: 39 symbol: 🤔, code point: 1f914, position: 71
