For instance, there are 4 ways to write copyright sign :
- Copy-Paste ©
- Write its decimal HTML-code: ©
- Use its hexadecimal HTML-code: ©
- Insert its HTML-entity: ©
All these codes you can find on our website, on a page of the corresponding symbol.
How to insert special symbols in HTML
Example 1. Display HTML-code on your web page
All the tags in HTML-code have angle-brackets < > ,
<img src="/i/image.png" alt="Image">
To make browser read it as text and not as HTML-code, you need to use < and > instead of angle-brackets:
<img src="/i/image.png" alt="Image">
