html.entities
--- Definitions of HTML general entitiesSource code: Lib/html/entities.py
[UNKNOWN NODE transition]This module defines four dictionaries, html5
,
name2codepoint
, codepoint2name
, and entitydefs
.
html.entities.html5
A dictionary that maps HTML5 named character references 1 to the
equivalent Unicode character(s), e.g. html5['gt;'] == '>'
.
Note that the trailing semicolon is included in the name (e.g. 'gt;'
),
however some of the names are accepted by the standard even without the
semicolon: in this case the name is present with and without the ';'
.
See also html.unescape()
