A complete list of all HTML escape characters

posted: June 9, 2010

From time to time you need to escape a character in a web page, but most of us don't know all the character codes by heart. Some of them, the ones you use most, tend to stick in the mind, but all of them? Besides, a good programmer is a lazy programmer - there's no need to memorize tables and tables of boring data when all you have to do is look them up!

In order to have my very own cheat-sheet at the ready wherever I am, I took the liberty of putting the entire list on my website. Feel free to bookmark this page, in case you ever need to find the correct escape code for that dodgy character.

With lists like these, there's always a small chance of an error finding it's way into the data - should you find an error, I'd appreciate it very much if you could drop me a line so I can correct it. Thanks!
