When users visit your website, they do things like click various links, bring mouse over text and images etc. These are examples of what we call events in JavaScript and VBScript terminologies. We can write our event handlers using JavaScript or VBScript and can specify some actions to be taken against these events. Though these are the events but they will be specified as attributes for the HTML tags. The HTML 4.01 specification had defined 19 events but later HTML-5 has added many other events which we have listed down here −

HTML – Fonts Reference

Fonts are specific to platform. You will have different look and feel of a web page on different machines running different operating systems like Windows, Linux or Mac iOS. Here we are giving a list of fonts which are available in various operating systems. HTML <font> tag is deprecated in version 4.0 onwards and now all fonts are set by using CSS. Here is the simple syntax of setting font of a body of web page.

body {
   font-family: "new century schoolbook";
}  
or  
<body style = "font-family:new century schoolbook;">

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

   <head>
      <title>Font Setting Using CSS</title>
   </head>

   <body>
      <p>Change any of the style and try it.</p>
      <div style = "font-family:verdana;">This is demo for font family</div>
      <br />

HTML ASCII Codes

There are 2⁷ = 128 printable characters which can be represented by different 7-BIT ASCII codes. Another set of characters are not for HTML representation but they are devised to control hardware. Following tables list down all the 7-BIT ASCII codes and their equivalent HTML Entity Codes. If you want to see equivalent HEX, OCT and extended set of ASCII codes then check next chapter.
