A

An HTML entity is escape sequence used to represent a special character that is hard to enter via a normal keyboard. For example, you can not find a key on your keyboard to enter the copyright character, "©" directly. You need to use the HTML entity "©" to represent the copyright character in your XTHML document.

Valid XHTML entities are defined in the following 3 files:

Latin 1 - xhtml-lat1.ent.
Special - xhtml-special.ent.
Symbols - xhtml-symbol.ent.
