Re: how to insert into html

Yes, many of the characters on the character map do work, and there are 
others that do not. Most of the common ones do work, many of the really 
weird ones do not, I am not sure where the cut-off point is. The other 
advantage to the Character map is you do not need to remember the numbers, 
especially if you use many accented letters.
