Named Character Entities

Contents

NamedCharacterEntity:
    & Identifier ;

The full list of named character entities from the HTML 5 Spec is supported. Named entities which contain multiple code points can only be used in string literals, not in character literals, since they do not fit in any character type. Below is a partial list of the named character entities.

Note: Not all glyphs will display properly in the Glyph column in all browsers.
