🔣 HTML Entities & Symbols

Last Updated: 01 Nov 2025

HTML Entities are special codes used to display characters that have reserved meaning in HTML or cannot be typed directly.

For example:

  • < is used to start a tag — so if you write it directly, browser gets confused.
  • To show it as text, use entity code &lt; → displays <.

✓\color{yellowgreen} \checkmark Entities always start with & and end with ;.

<p>2 &lt; 5 and 10 &gt; 2</p>

🗣 Hinglish Tip: Entity = HTML ka secret code jo special character ko safely show karta hai
