> Numeric character references? What are those?
From the HTML specification
5.3.1 Numeric character references
Numeric character references specify the code position of a character
in the document character set. Numeric character references may take
two forms:
* The syntax "&#D;", where D is a decimal number, refers to the ISO
10646 decimal character number D.
* The syntax "&#xH;" or "&#XH;", where H is a hexadecimal number,
refers to the ISO 10646 hexadecimal character number H.
Hexadecimal numbers in numeric character references are
case-insensitive.
