The following table shows a list of entities that are usable inside MapTool’s chat window, dialogs, and frames.

Note that some of the entities on this page are from HTML 4.0 and the library used by MapTool currently supports HTML 3.2, so there may be some that don’t work properly.

To use these in your MapTool HTML, choose either the Name or the Code field. Add an ampersand prefix (“&“) and a semi-colon suffix (“;“). For example, ♥ and ♥ both generate ♥. Searching is made simpler by typing a few letters into the Filter box (filtering is performed based on the text of the entire row, not just a single column; try it and you’ll see what I mean).
