*PRACTICE*
THE LESSON Special Characters	You've had the opportunity to work with "entities" in the w3schools site. Entities are special commands that let the browser represent characters. They could be something as simple as the letters of the alphabet, but usually they are characters outside of the normal set of ASCII code. They might be symbols such as ... < ← ♠ ≠ Each of these symbols can be identified by a specific html designation. Some of them (most of them, in fact) can be represented by one of two types of designations. Let's look at the "less than" symbol. I could simply type it on my keyboard as <. Or, I could write in the following html code < which would also produce the less than symbol. Or, I could write in the following html code < which would also produce the less than symbol. The command must begin with an ampersand (&) and end with a semi-colon ( ; ). In between will be either the characters which represent the symbol, or the number (preceded by # ) which represents the symbol. SAMPLE CODE <html> <head> <title="Entities" by Clint Morey> </head> <body> <p>Using Entities</p> <p> </p> <p>This is a sample of the paragraph symbol using the character code &para;<br> ¶ <p>This is a sample of the paragraph symbol using the numeric code &#182;</p> ¶ </body> </html>
