Below are the entities listed in numeric order with definition and ISO numeric code. CSS 'content'
does not accept named entities or regular numeric entities such as @, but does render ASCII text and unicode.
If you want to replace the bullets in a bulleted list with a different character, perhaps a ♥ or · you would need to use the unicode entity rather than the named or numeric entity: use the hexadecimal entity.
li:before {content:"\2665"; text-indent: -10px;}
If you want to include characters in JavaScript, the process is very similar to the CSS inclusion method, except : in JavaScript use octal-encoded characters without a preceding 0 instead of the HTML entity for the normal chars, and the hex character preceded by a \u for all other characters..
alert('M\351nage \340 trois.')
