We put together a complete list of HTML entities with their numbers and names. You’ll find this very useful when your adding unique characters to your site!
Use HTML Entities for Accent Characters in Your Websites
Creating HTML entities and language accent marks is something Rudtek needs often in creating new sites. For Language marks, the umlaut, circumflex, accent grave, and accent acute are extremely important.
Designing a website is sometimes done with HTML, but often our clients type out their content ahead of time on their PCs, so we’ve put together this list on how to get each of these accent marks on both the PC and how to do it with HTML entities.
