*Entries in the “Entity” column are character entity references that can be used in HTML and should be interpreted correctly by Web browsers that support HTML 4.0. Entities need to be predefined in the markup language definition (DTD); this approach is only available for those characters that HTML 4.01 has specifically chosen to represent as entities. It is worth remembering that the ability of the browser to render an entity will depend on several factors, such as the age of the browser and the font being used.

† Numeric character references always refer to the number of a character in the Unicode repertoire, no matter what encoding you use.

Table of character entity references in HTML 4

This Greek entity set contains all the letters used in modern Greek. However, it does not include Greek punctuation, precomposed accented characters nor the non-spacing accents (tonos, dialytika) required to compose them. There are no archaic letters, Coptic-unique letters, or precomposed letters for Polytonic Greek. The entities defined here are not intended for the representation of modern Greek text and would not be an efficient representation; rather, they are intended for occasional Greek letters used in technical and mathematical works.
