Latin-1 Entities

The following table gives the character entity reference, decimal character reference, and hexadecimal character reference for 8-bit characters in the Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) character set, as well as the rendering of each in your browser. Glyphs of the characters are available at the Unicode Consortium.

Browser support is generally best for the decimal character references, except for the accented characters (decimal 192-214, 216-246, 248-255), where the character entity references hold a slight edge.

Note that most Mac browsers will render fourteen Latin-1 characters incorrectly. These characters are decimal 166, 178, 179, 185, 188, 189, 190, 208, 215, 221, 222, 240, 253, and 254. See ISO-8859-1 and the Mac platform for more information.
