HTML Tips
While ® and © will render correctly on Netscape & Mosaic browsers (® and ©), they will appear as ® and © on other browsers. This means, for example, a copyright notice using the new character entity may appear as, "Copyright © 1996."
Instead of using the Netscape-introduced entities, use the 174th and 169th characters of the ISO Latin 1 set. These characters correspond to the (R) and (C) symbols and should display properly on browsers using ISO Latin 1 (even some text browsers!). Place ® in your source for a registered trademark symbol or © for a copyright symbol. These ampersand sequences will cause those symbols to render correctly on the largest number of browsers.
Alternately, you can omit the symbols and use the following text-only syntax.
- Copyright <year> <owner>.
- Example: Copyright 1996 Eric Sasaki
- <product name> is a Registered Trademark of <owner> .
- Example: AcmeX is a Registered Trademark of Acme, Inc.
- <P ALIGN=CENTER>This text will be centered</P>
- <DIV ALIGN=RIGHT>All elements between the tags will be right-justified.</DIV>
- <H1 ALIGN=CENTER>You can center your headlines too!</H1>
