From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Addendum: Oops. Just found the Wiki special characters page. Still, I'll probably work on this some more for my own use.


These are some character entities that my main browser (IE 5.5) recognizes. This table is by no means complete. Once I've cleaned it up to my satisfaction, I'll add off-site links to the appropriate W3C references, free font downloads, and browser updates, then move it to a main Wikipedia page. Before that, however, I'd like to test it with several other browsers.

In the mean time, if you have any comments about this page, please use CharTalk.
