Special Characters: ISO 8859-1

You may often need special characters that are not on your keyboard. Use the following table to create these characters.

There are two systems: Code and Entity. Entity is easier to use. Just remember that you place an ampersand first, the abbreviation for the character (such as "amp" for ampersand), and then a semicolon to close.

For example, to produce an ampersand (&), type & in your HTML and it will appear as & in your browser.
