The ™ (TM) symbol is not validating. It's charset=ISO-8859-1 compliant but not Standard General Mark-Up Language. What is the SGML character for the TradeMark symbol? In fact, anyone have a reference page for them all? Thanks.

Numeric codes between 128 and 255 inclusive are platform-specific: Macs will probably display different characters. That's why entities like &auml; and &eacute; were created. For the trademark symbol, use &trade; or &#8482; -- although some older browsers might not recognise them.

Terrific, I never understood what was happening with this. Good reference page too, thanks.
