Questions

What are HTML entities?
HTML entities are special codes used to display reserved or special characters in HTML. They start with & and end with ;. For example, &lt; displays as < and &amp; displays as &.
When should I use HTML entities?
Use HTML entities for characters that have special meaning in HTML (like <, >, &, and "), for characters not easily typed on a keyboard, and for special symbols like copyright (©), trademark (™), and mathematical operators.
What is the difference between named and numeric HTML entities?
Named entities use a descriptive label like &amp; or &copy;. Numeric entities use the Unicode code point in decimal (&#169;) or hex (&#xA9;) form. Named entities are easier to read, but numeric entities can represent any Unicode character.
How do I type an HTML entity for a non-breaking space?
Use &nbsp; or &#160; to insert a non-breaking space. It prevents line breaks between two words and is commonly used to add extra spacing in HTML where multiple regular spaces would be collapsed.
Is this HTML entities reference available offline?
Yes. The entire reference table loads in your browser on first visit. All searching and filtering happens client-side with no server requests required.
