XHTML Special Characters

Character Entity References in HTML 4 and XHTML 1.0 Here is a set of tables containing the 252 allowed entities in HTML 4 and XHTML 1.0, as described in section 24 of the official HTML 4 specifications, published by the W3C. I have divided them into my own, hopefully logical, categories: Each table has five columns. The fifth column contains a description of the character, and an occasional note. There are many ways to order character entities. For more information on how to use these entities in your Web pages, see HTML, XHTML, and CSS, Sixth Edition by Elizabeth Castro. Entities for characters with special meaning in HTML and XHTML Entities for accented characters, accents, and other diacritics from Western European Languages Entities for punctuation characters Entities for mathematical and technical characters (including Greek) Entities for shapes and arrows The layout of this document is copyright © 2002 Elizabeth Castro.
