Symbols in Blog Posts

Welcome to Blogging Sueblimely. To keep up with my posts you can subscribe to my RSS feed and follow me on Twitter. Thanks for visiting!

Following on from my last post on using ‘entities’ in your html to display special characters, here are a few that you may find useful - symbols that you may wish to use but are not on your keyboard:

Name Symbol Enter this into html area
Copyright symbol (©) &#169
Trademark ® &#174
Half ½ &#189
Quarter ¼ &#188
Three Quarters ¼ &#190
Curly Quotes &#8220
Curly Quotes &#8221
Bullet &#8226
Right Arrow ? &#8594
Left Arrow ? &#8592
At @ &#64
Heart ? &#9829

If you look at the heart above, you will see that these symbols can be formatted just like any other text.
I will create a chart containing more symbols and their entity numbers soon.
