html.entities — Definitions of HTML general entities¶
Source code: Lib/html/entities.py
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().- New in version 3.3. 
- 
html.entities.entitydefs¶
- A dictionary mapping XHTML 1.0 entity definitions to their replacement text in ISO Latin-1. 
- 
html.entities.name2codepoint¶
- A dictionary that maps HTML entity names to the Unicode code points. 
- 
html.entities.codepoint2name¶
