Pressing the Red Button

In HTML, you can not use the less than or greater than signs. You must use a special syntax to represent these reserved characters in HTML. These symbols are written as Character Entities:

• The less than sign(<):   &lt;
• The greater than sign(>):   &gt;

Other Common Reserved Characters and their Character Entities:
• The non breaking space( ):   &nbsp;
• The ampersand(&):   &amp;
• The copyright symbo(©):   &copy;
