Occasionally you will want to include special characters
in your Web page that do not appear on your keyboard. For example ®
or ©. HTML supports several character symbols that you can insert
into your page. Each character symbol is identified by a code number or
name. To create a special character, type an ampersand (&) followed
either by the code name or code number. Code numbers must be preceded by
a pound symbol (#). The chart below shows some HTML symbols and the corresponding
code numbers or names.
