HTML Latin-1 Character Entities Reference

HTML 4.01 supports the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set.

The lower part of ISO-8859-1 (codes from 0-127) is the original 7-BIT ASCII.

The higher part of ISO-8859-1 (codes from 160-255) all have character entity names.

Most of these characters can be used without an entity reference, but entity names or entity numbers provide a method for expressing characters that cannot easily be entered on a keyboard.

Note: Entity names are case sensitive.
