A character entity is a character or symbol you want on the screen that cannot be found on most keyboards. All character entities are formed the same way:

&name;

The leading ampersand and the trailing semi-colon tell HTML that this is a character entity. The name tells HTML which one to choose.

P. S. ''' (apostrophe) does not work in MSIE. It works everywhere else.
