Accents & special characters - HTML

To add accented letters and other symbols to a webpage, you can use the numeric or name codes shown below.

How it works:

If you are editing raw HTML, to produce a lower case 'a' with an acute accent (á) type á or á
If you are using a WYSIWYG editor, such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver, you can use the codes or shortcuts for Mac and Windows.
