ASCII CHARACTER LIST?
could someone direct me to a site - to down load the ASCII character list?
I know, it is out of date, but I would like to use it.

You COULD use superscript for the numerator and subscript for the
denominator. If you really HAVE to have a horizontal bar, try inserting
an equation editor object into you document. If you don't have one
already, look for an equation editor in suites like Microsoft Office or
OpenOffice.

Although the title of that page is "The ACSII Codes and HTML Entity
Names", it shows character references. Entity references (names) are in
the form &abc; and not .

Character references are Microsoft-defined and work only if your HTML
file has something like
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1252">
in its HEAD section. (Other Windows-related charsets are also okay.)

If you go to the site I referenced earlier in this thread, you will see
both character and entity references. The latter should work with any
"charset" (e.g., ISO-8859-1, UTF-8) providing the user has appropriate
fonts installed and is using a browser that complies with the W3C
specifications.
