This browser-based utility converts Unicode text to a data URL. Anything that you paste or enter in the text area on the left automatically gets encoded to a data URL on the right. It supports the most popular Unicode encodings (such as UTF-8, UTF-16, UCS-2, UTF-32, and UCS-4) and it works with emoji characters. You can also customize the data URL output format by adding the charset (media type) parameter. Created by encoding gurus from team Browserling.
This utility encodes your Unicode characters, numbers, letters, emojis, and other symbols to data URLs (or data URIs). A data URL (data URI) is a scheme defined by RFC 2397 standard that allows you to include small data elements in a URL string. Data URLs are constituted of four parts – a scheme (currently always "data:"), a MIME/media type indicating the data type, an optional base64 extension, and the data itself. When converting Unicode to a data URI, you can switch between five output encodings, namely, UTF8, UTF16, UTF32, UCS2, and UCS4, and for the last four multi-byte encodings, choose the Big Endian or Little Endian byte order formats. Also, we have an extra option that adds the charset parameter to the output data URI. This parameter specifies the encoding of the base64-encoded data. For UTF-8, it's "charset=utf-8", for UTF-16 Big Endian, it's "charset=utf-16be", for UTF-16 Little Endian, it's "charset=utf-16le", for UTF-32 Big Endian, it's "charset=utf-32be", for UTF-32 Little Endian, it's "charset=utf-32le", for UCS-2 Big Endian, it's "iso-10646-ucs-2be", for UCS-2 Little Endian, it's "iso-10646-ucs-2le", for UCS-4 Big Endian, it's "iso-10646-ucs-4be", and for UCS-4 Little Endian, it's "iso-10646-ucs-4le".
In this example, we convert an Oscar Wilde quote written in Unicode letters to a data URL. We use a UTF8 encoding and display the character set of the media type (which is "encoding=utf-8").
This example encodes a Happy Birthday wish that's constructed using various special Unicode characters into a UTF16 Little Endian data URI. The MIME type for this data URI is "text/plain" and the encoding media type "encoding=utf-16le".
In this example, we have selected the UCS4 Big Endian encoding for the output and convert a list of Unicode technology emoji to the base64 data URL encoding, without printing the charset (which is UCS-4 Bit Endian).
You can pass input to this tool via ?input query argument and it will automatically compute output. Here's how to type it in your browser's address bar. Click to try!

string is first decoded to code
point values. Then these values
are encoded to the selected
encoding. After this, the raw
bytes of the encoded data are
encoded one more time to
the base-64.
