"Character Entity Reference Browser & Font Support

Standards compliant broswers should display most, if not all of the listed character entities. Opera, Mozilla and Netscape 7 offer excellent support of the expanded character list. Internet Explorer 6 is aided here by the use of the special "Arial Unicode MS" font heading the font-family ("arial unicode MS", arial, geneva, sans-serif;) used to style the definition type,

elements.

This page, written to conform to the XHTML 1.1 doctype and uses UTF-8 character encoding for an enhanced level of character support. BIG BAER's Character Entity HTML Reference is Small Screen Rendering device friendly.

Add a panel optimized version of the expanded Character Entity Html Reference to your Opera Panels, Mozilla, or Netscape sidebar."
