: HTML heading and html special characters I'm trying to edit a index.html file but in my heading my html special character code is not showing on the screen. Example: <h5>Souscrire &#224;

As a french user, you should not do that. Simply encode all your files in UTF-8 and you will be able to use whatever accent you want : ç,é,è,à,ô...

But you will need to add a little header to the html file.

<meta charset="utf-8">

there's nothing wrong with your code, as you can see in this jsfiddle.

the problem has to be something else, but to find that out, we'll nee a bit more information:


which browsers have you tested?
do other html-entities work?
have you tried creating a new file only containing that one line?
