ISO Latin 1 Character HTML Entity Names

The following provides a list of the HTML entity names of all the ISO Latin-1 Characters. The term ISO Latin-1 refers to the characters defined by the ISO Standard ISO8859-1 Latin-1 characters codes. RFC 1866 recommends referencing special characters with a character entity name rather than the ISO Latin-1 code entity name. These character entity names are described in http://www.sandia.gov/sci_compute/symbols.html.

Rendering Note: This document lists the ISO Latin-1 numeric entity name on a line by itself, then uses the ISO Latin-1 entity name as an example on the following line, followed by the common term for the character. If the ISO Latin-1 entity name appears duplicated on the example line, then your browser does not recognize the ISO Latin-1 entity and cannot render it as designed. If there is a character entity name which could be used instead of the ISO Latin-1 numeric entity name, that character entity name is also listed on the example line in square brackets. If the character entity name is duplicated inside the square brackets, then your browser does not recognize the character entity name.
