1. Popular HTML Entities

Some characters are reserved in HTML (like < and >) because the browser interprets them as tags. To display these characters, we must use their *entity name* or *entity number*.

Common Entities Table:

Character	Description	Entity Name
<	Less than	&lt;
>	Greater than	&gt;
&	Ampersand	&amp;
"	Double quote	&quot;
'	Single quote	&apos;
	Non-breaking space	&nbsp;
©	Copyright	&copy;
