Don's Home Technology Character Sets | Symbols and Icons Char Entity Names and UTF codes | |
HTML supports character reference of the form (&#number;) where xxx is the decimal code for the character and entity references of the form ¢ using entity names. Some support existed in Navigator 2 but you generally
need Explorer 4 (and greater) and Navigator 5 (and greater) for more complete support. Most browsers now support hexadeciman code in the form &#xnumber; U+xxxx codes are Unicode values (UTF-8 and UTF-16), For example the Euro symbol "€" may be coded as: € or €, where 8364 is the decimal equivalent of Hex 20AC.
