How do I show this as an actual html file, just like it shows on run code instead of just plain html text.

Is there any way I can directly convert the base64 to an actual html page. IS it possible with python?

• javascript
• python
• html
• css
• base64

• (Unrelated to your actual question) The data url in the a element's href attribute starts with data:text/css which denotes a css ruleset and not html. Better use data:text/html. – collapsar Commented Jun 21, 2019 at 11:08

Use it with iframe. Simply make sure you use the correct data (data:text/html;charset=utf-8;base64) and that you have a valid converted HTML

iframe {
 border:none;
 width:100%;
 height:1000px;
}


body {
 margin:0;
}

if you want to convert a base64 file try by using a third party web like https://www.base64decode/ but what the file is supposed to be for? it seem like it's corrupted.. where do you get it/how do you created it?

You can't convert image to html, only you can do it's just parse text from this image, But not all text will be parsed correctly.

you can try this approach Scan and extract text from an image using Python libraries

What you ask, this work can done HTML Coder
