HTML Character Entities Cheat Sheet
HTML character entities are codes that represent special characters such as "<", "&", and "©" in HTML documents. They begin with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). Some common HTML character entities are:
- <for <
- > for >
- & for &
- © for ©
- " for "
- ® for ®
- for non-breaking space
Using HTML character entities ensures that the special characters are displayed correctly in all browsers and devices.
