HTML special characters

In html, we already discussed the special characters; the html sonderzeichen is also the  German name; it is denoted as the special character; it is combined with HTML, so it is called html special characters. Every special character it will work with different sets and umlauts in html documents and also using ASCII code it will convert the decimal code, binary or hexa or octa codes are to be converted into the letters like A, B …to Z it also append with the lower case letters a..z the codes are comprised with the 7 bits large and small letters will be differed with the 32 digits, and therefore the digits are placed as the byte representation.

Syntax

The html special characters have their own syntax for utilizing the web pages.

-----html tags with the elements and special characters like &,#...etc----

The above codes are the basic syntax for the special characters in the html documents. If we use different tags and elements, it may vary when utilized the special characters in the html document. We can use the mathematical symbols in the html each char will be assigned to each number and entities. Even we use the Greek language letters supported by the html characters, numbers and also entities.

How does HTML Sonderzeichen work?

Html Sonderzeichen is the special characters also its name as a reserved character because all html characters are some specific usage of the html tags and elements. Usually, the web pages, whenever we visited the html codes, tells that the web browsers for each html contents of the page are rendered it with the other web pages it will be visually shown with the web page viewers. The html codes contain the basic instructions with the building blocks known as the elements, which cannot be seen as the web page users. The html codes will be developed using normal text language characters; as we have seen in the html language, we use the tags called a head, title and paragraphs; it will be seen as normal users, and also it is a readable format.

When we use the html and the type of text will be designed and readable with the user language text, we did not use any special codes in the document. We will be used in the normal keyboards for typing the characters, letters and numbers even though we use some mathematical functions and special characters with the help of shift, alt keys. But some special characters are not shown on the keyboards; it may vary when compared to the English keyboards; even we use some other language keyboards like german, Chinese etc., the characters may vary, and the keys are also shown.

If we want to use the characters in the readable format text, the html uses as part of the code itself. These special characters will be included with the open and close tags characters used in the html codes to start and stop every html tag. We may also include some characters in the text; as we discussed earlier, the characters that are not seen and not have keys in the keyboards, such as © and Ñ in that characters, will be converted into the machine language Ascii symbols. Special characters are the set of specific pieces of the html language codes designed to display characters that are used in the html codes or to include with the characters html renders also used those special characters with either numeric or character encoding techniques will be used so that they can be included in the html web documents it will be readed by the user browsers, and it displayed for the user screen properly for the site visitors.

When we typed the special characters in the html codes directly, we will use them as the elements in the html codes. We will type those characters in the encoding format; it will appear correctly, and it will be the readable format like ampersand-&amp, less-than sign — <. Each special character begins with the ampersand symbol; even the ampersand begins with this characters, and special characters end with the semicolon. We can add the contents whatever we needed the special characters we use it with these to special symbols.

The special characters can be rendered with some standard language characters like Latin-1; it can be set with the HTML. Every character that can be typed with the user screens has to be the corresponding decimal numeric codes. We can use this numeric codes to display with any characters. If we use the copyright symbol in the web page, we use the decimal codes like “©;” it will display the web pages on the user screen. The Sites are built with the database connections, and also the xml language might not have used in all the html friendly codes defined; they support only the numeric html codes.

Example #3

Code:

<script>
function Sample() {
var s="Welcome to My Domain";
window.print();
var i = s.length,
arr = [];
while (i--) {
var j = s[i].charCodeAt();
if (j < 10 || j > 100 || (j > 50 && j < 29)) {
arr[i] = '&#' + j + ';';
} else {
arr[i] = s[i];
}
}
return arr.join('');
}
</script>


<button onclick="Sample()">Print Contents</button>
<script>
document.write(Sample());
</script>
