There are some characters that are
special in HTML, like the left and right angle brackets
<> and a few others. Obviously there has to be a way to render those characters on a page. This is done with another pair of special characters, the ampersand and semicolon (
& ; ). These are used as delimiters for either a numeric value or a short and specific reference to the character desired. See
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_entities.asp for a more complete treatment.
