Documents which contain _FORM_ elements do not conform to this [DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12), and [must](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS25) use the level 2 [DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12). ... -- > %html; ## [Strict Level 1 HTML DTD](html-spec%5Ftoc.html#SEC9.4) This document type declaration refers to the level 1 HTML [DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) with the\`HTML.Recommended' [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) defined as \`INCLUDE' rather than IGNORE; that is, it refers to the more structurally rigid definition of HTML. ... -- > %html-1; ## [SGML Declaration for HTML](html-spec%5Ftoc.html#SEC9.5) This is the SGML Declaration for HyperText [Markup](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS20) Language. ## [Sample SGML Open Entity Catalog for HTML](html-spec%5Ftoc.html#SEC9.6) The SGML standard describes an "[entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) manager" as the portion or component of an SGML system that maps SGML entities into the actual storage model (e.g., the file system). The standard itself does not define a particular mapping methodology or notation. To assist the interoperability among various SGML tools and systems, the SGML Open consortium has passed a technical resolution that defines a format for an application-independent [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) catalog that maps external identifiers and/or [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) names to file names. Each entry in the catalog associates a storage object identifier (such as a file name) with information about the external [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) that appears in the [SGML document](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS27). In addition to entries that associate public identifiers, a catalog entry can associate an [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) name with a storage object identifier. For example, the following are possible catalog entries: -- catalog: SGML Open style [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) catalog for HTML -- -- Id:catalog,v1.31995/09/2123:30:23connollyExpId: catalog,v 1.3 1995/09/21 23:30:23 connolly Exp Id:catalog,v1.31995/09/2123:30:23connollyExp -- -- Ways to refer to Level 2: most general to most specific -- PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML//EN" html.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML 2.0//EN" html.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML Level 2//EN" html.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML 2.0 Level 2//EN" html.dtd -- Ways to refer to Level 1: most general to most specific -- PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML Level 1//EN" html-1.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML 2.0 Level 1//EN" html-1.dtd -- Ways to refer to Strict Level 2: most general to most specific -- PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML Strict//EN" html-s.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML 2.0 Strict//EN" html-s.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML Strict Level 2//EN" html-s.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML 2.0 Strict Level 2//EN" html-s.dtd -- Ways to refer to Strict Level 1: most general to most specific -- PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML Strict Level 1//EN" html-1s.dtd PUBLIC "-//IETF//[DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) HTML 2.0 Strict Level 1//EN" html-1s.dtd -- ISO latin 1 [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) set for HTML -- PUBLIC "ISO 8879-1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN//HTML" ISOlat1.sgml ## [Character Entity Sets](html-spec%5Ftoc.html#SEC9.7) The HTML [DTD](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS12) defines the following entities. They represent particular graphic characters which have special meanings in places in the [markup](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS20), or [may](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS21) not be part of the [character](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS4) set available to the writer. ### [Numeric and Special Graphic Entity Set](html-spec%5Ftoc.html#SEC9.7.1) The following table lists each of the characters included from the Numeric and Special Graphic [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) set, along with its name, syntax for use, and description. This list is derived from \`ISO Standard 8879:1986//ENTITIES Numeric and Special Graphic//EN'. However, HTML does not include for the entire [entity](html-spec%5F2.html#GLOSS15) set -- only the entities listed below are included.

This list is derived from ISO Standard 8879:1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN.
