Special character codings

HTML standards require all code to be written in 7-bit ASCII, which means that accented characters are not allowed. Despite this, current browsers recognise accented characters; you can enter accented characters directly in your text editor, but your page will be unreadable in most countries. To code an accented character, enter a certain string which begins with an ampersand (&) and ends with a semi-colon (;). Here is a list of HTML representations for ASCII characters from 128 to 255:

Encoding HTML symbols

The characters <, >, " and & are used very frequently in HTML markup. The character < is especially important, as the browser interprets it as the opening of a new HTML tag. When these characters are used in text on a website, they must be coded in HTML as given below; otherwise the browser may display the page incorrectly.
