12/02/2001 Entry: "2-Dec-2001 -- Using Special Characters in HTML"

Using Special Characters in HTML -- "Below are the most used special characters and the HTML coding to make them appear correctly."

A nice reference, but, unfortunately, if you code those special characters the way they describe, most of them won't display properly in all browsers. This A List Apart article has the full details, but, basically, anything from � to � shouldn't be used. If you're dead-set on using all the wierd stuff, with the understanding that it'll look wacky to many, a better reference is the one at glish.com.

Heh heh. See what I mean? That should read anything from 129 to 159 shouldn't be used. And now you see why.
