In this page there are presented tables with specific HTML codes (or HTML Symbol Entities), and various special characters (mathematical symbols, Latin characters, Greek letters and other characters less used); with their Decimal and Hex number.
These characters can be displayed in a web page by using a specific code for each symbol.

• To display a symbol /character in HTML document using the Decimal Number, add the: &# in front of the Decimal number, and ; at the end.

For example:
  - to display the '©' (copyright) in a web page, you can add this entity code: © (or with the Decimal number:   © , with Hex Code:   © ).
  - to display the '&' symbol in a web page and keep the code valid HTML, you can add this entity code: & (or with the Decimal number:   & , with Hex Code:   & ).
  - To add a '<' sign and avoid that the browser interprets it as a character for starting tag, you can add the code:   &lt;

<style>
ul { list-style: none; }
ul li:before {
 content: '\00BB'; /* Hex code notation */
 padding-right: 8px;
}
</style>
