Special Characters
To add any of the following characters, press and hold the ALT key while typing the numbers on the 10-key number pad. Release the ALT key when you have finished typing the numbers. The keys at the top of the keyboard will not work.
If you are having trouble using the ALT codes, highlight the character you want to insert from the table below, right-click it and select "Copy". Go to the location in your site where you want the character and paste it into any rich-text editor.
You also have the option of using the HTML entity for the character. Type the entity into the rich-text editor, then save, edit, and save to make the character appear correctly.
