Special HTML Code for Curly Brackets 1

[smidwap]

I am currently programming a script which needs some special html coding done. I need to be able to write curly brackets, { and }, on my web page without actually writing it in the source code. For example, you could write < as & lt; and > as & gt; (disregard the spaces between the &'s and the lt and gt, as I didn't want this page to interpret those as < and >). I would greatly appreciate and helpful tips or advice.

Thank you.

& # 1 2 5 ; = {

& # 1 2 3 ; = }

Please remove the spaces. DeZiner

Hi smidwap and DeZiner,

For some reason this tek-tips site shows characters for all those that started with &amp;amp;

But if you type &amp;amp;#123; instead of &amp;#123; then you avoid that there will be html characters shown.

But do not preview the post, otherwise it shows fine in the preview and the actual post shows the html character.

Thanks guys. I spent about three hours searching through various unicode character sites and finally found the unicode DeZiner was refering to. Thanks for the help! Now I can finally go along programming my script.
