Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use HTML entities?
Using HTML entities ensures that special characters are rendered correctly by the browser and are not misinterpreted as part of the HTML markup. For example, using `<` instead of `<` prevents the browser from thinking you're starting a new tag.
What's the difference between named and decimal codes?
Both achieve the same result. Named entities (like `©`) are easier for humans to remember. Decimal entities (like `©`) are based on the character's Unicode number and are more universal, covering a much wider range of characters.
