Everything is Greek to me

Writing Greek Letters in HTML

The codes come from Special Characters (Characters with Diacritical Marks) for International Folk Dance Descriptions, by Dick Oakes

Greek Alphabet
ASCII characters for HTML allow you to use many characters not included in an English keyboard, including the Greek alphabet.

To make the right character appear on the page, you start with an ampersand (&) and a pound sign (#), followed by a 3-digit number, and ending with a semicolon (;). On the list of ASCII codes for Greek letters shown below, there is a space between the # and the first number (9). You must remove this space to make the code work.
