HTML 4.0 special characters

From http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/sgml/entities.html

Converted semi-automatically from that page on 1998-09-05.

The glyph images come from the Unicode Standard

Since publishing this page, I have learned of two other similar web page locations where you will find more information (but so far without the glyph images).

There is also a tab-delimited ASCII text file of this data

Since this table is alphabetized by description, entities with more than one description appear as many times as there are descriptions.

Each cell in the three “rendered as” columns has the actual HTML entity code, so it should look like the corrsponding glyph image in the first column!
