Tutorial 17: Shady Characters

So far in the HTML with Style tutorials, I have let you type away at your text editors without worrying too much about which characters you use and why. HTML, however, is quite picky about what kinds of characters are allowed to inhabit its documents, and requires you to let it be known in advance which characters will be allowed in and how they'll be dressed up in bits and bytes. In this tutorial, we will take a look at the concepts of character sets, character encodings, and character references.

• Character sets & character encodings
• Selecting an encoding
• Specifying the character encoding
• Character references
• Numeric character references
• Character entity references
• Character references
• Summary
