Appendix F. Character Entities
Characters not found in the normal alphanumeric character set, such
as © or &, must be specified in HTML using
character entities. Character entities can be defined by
name
(&
name
;)
or by numeric value
(&#
nnn
;).
The first part of this appendix presents the standard HTML character entities. The second part presents newly added entities in the HTML 4.0 specification that are not as well supported.
Standard Character Entities
The following table contains the defined standard, proposed, and several nonstandard, bvut generally supported, character entities for HTML. Not all 256 characters in the ISO character set appear in the table. Missing ones are not recognized by the browser as either named or numeric entities.
Entities for which the version conformance column is blank are part of the HTML 2.0 and later standards and will work with nearly all available browsers. Characters whose version column contains “4.0” are part of the HTML 4.0 specification only. As of this writing, they are supported by versions 4.0 and higher of Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer. An “N” in the conformance column indicates that the character is a nonstandard entity. Use them with caution as results may vary by platform.
