At page http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/sgml/entities.html#h-24.4 the entity names for quotation marks are defined: <!ENTITY lsquo CDATA "‘" -- left single quotation mark, U+2018 ISOnum --> <!ENTITY rsquo CDATA "’" -- right single quotation mark, U+2019 ISOnum --> <!ENTITY sbquo CDATA "‚" -- single low-9 quotation mark, U+201A NEW --> <!ENTITY ldquo CDATA "“" -- left double quotation mark, U+201C ISOnum --> <!ENTITY rdquo CDATA "”" -- right double quotation mark, U+201D ISOnum --> <!ENTITY bdquo CDATA "„" -- double low-9 quotation mark, U+201E NEW --> I think that there is some logic in the names: First character l = left r = right b = bottom Second character s = single d = double Third to fifth character quo = quotation mark Therefore, my question is: is sbquo (single bottom) really the right name? Or should it be bsquo (bottom single)? Eric-Paul RebelReceived on Saturday, 5 September 1998 16:55:34 GMT
