As a developer, you'll eventually need to look up hex or ASCII values and see what they translate to. You might also need to know what the decimal, binary, or HTML values are, too.
If you search for these codes online, you'll often find tables that are really just images. These are inaccessible to people with disabilities, and inconvenient to use – you can't search for something and copy-paste code you want.
To make your life easier, I created a table from the best sources I could find. Just scroll or use Ctrl/Cmd + f to find the value you're looking for.
Here's the traditional ASCII table:

Sources for both tables: ASCII, Windows-1252, and ASCII Code - The extended ASCII table
Note that there are several other extended ASCII tables like ISO 8859, ISO 8859-1, ISO 8859-2, and so on. The extended table above is based on Windows-1252 ASCII table, and is what web browsers used before UTF-8 was created.
Even though we've largely moved past ASCII and its limitations to modern character encodings like UTF-8, all of the HTML values in the tables above will still work on current browsers.

How to Use ASCII Characters in HTML
ASCII characters can be useful for web developers, like if you need to manually insert whitespace or a special character into your HTML.
If you look at the tables above, you'll see that every ASCII character has an HTML entity number, and some also have an HTML entity name.
Each HTML entity number and name starts with an ampersand (&) and ends with a semicolon (;).
You can use these anywhere in your HTML to reliably render that character, no matter what the a person's browser language is set to.
In general, it's recommended to use the HTML entity name whenever possible – they're easier to remember, and are self-descriptive for any other developers that read your code.
For example, if you need to render the Euro currency sign (€), the HTML entity name €
is much easier to remember than €
.
Here are some of the more common ASCII characters you'll use in HTML, along with some examples.
How to Use the
Non-Breaking Space Character Code
There are times when you'll want to add a space, but want to keep other words or characters together, even if there's a limited amount of horizontal space.
An easy way to do this would be to use a non-breaking space character, for example:
<span>Superpower: listening</span>
Which renders the following:
Superpower:listeningSure, it looks like there's a normal space between the colon and the "l" in "listening", but the
character makes it so that the line will never break there.
For example, here's that code with an outline around the span
element, and with a width of 150 pixels:
With a normal space character, the line would break like this:
Superpower: listeningYou can even insert several non-breaking spaces in a row to create make-shift text padding:
<span>Superpower: listening</span>
How to Make a Newline in HMTL using the
Newline Character Code
While you can use JavaScript to render \n
as a newline in HTML, that's not always an option. You might only have access to the HTML code, or just want to keep things simple.
In that case, you can use the newline / line feed character code to force a newline:
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em;"> <label for="example-1">Example 1: </label> <textarea name="example-1" id="example-1">Hello freeCodeCamp</textarea></div>
Which renders the following:
And yes, you can use these back-to-back, too:
<div style="margin-bottom: 1.5em;"> <label for="example-2">Example 2: </label> <textarea name="example-2" id="example-2" style="height: 150px;">Hello freeCodeCamp</textarea></div>
However, note that the
character doesn't override the default styling of the element it's used in. For example, the p
element doesn't allow line breaks within the element – you'd have to create another paragraph element:
<p style="outline: red 1px solid;">This is paragraph text and 
 whoops there is a new line.</p>
The code above renders everything to a single line:
This is paragraph text and whoops there is a new line.
To override this behavior, just set the white-space
property to pre-wrap
:
<p style="outline: red 1px solid; white-space: pre-wrap;">This is paragraph text and 
 whoops there is a new line.</p>
This is paragraph text and whoops there is a new line.

How to convert hexadecimal to ASCII? ›
The logic behind HEX to ASCII conversion is very simple. We are just checking whether the number is in range 0 – 9 or not. When the number is in that range, then the hexadecimal digit is numeric, and we are just simply adding 30H with it to get the ASCII value.
What are the hexadecimal values for ASCII characters? ›Standard ASCII codes range from 0 to 127 in Decimal or 00 to 7F in Hexadecimal, they are mainly used for representing characters, such as characters "a" to "z" and number "0" to "9", these are called printable characters, note that code 0 to 31 (Decimal) in Standard ASCII are not printable, they are assigned for ...

Hexa to ASCII Conversion Method
ASCII code is for encoding characters in the computers. To print an ASCII character or to display it on a monitor, the hexadecimal code specified to that character has to be used. To identify the characters it is important to know the Hexa to ASCII conversion.
...
For example:
- A=10.
- B=11.
- C=12.
- D=13.
- E=14.
- F=15.
The hexadecimal numeral system, often shortened to "hex", is a numeral system made up of 16 symbols (base 16). The standard numeral system is called decimal (base 10) and uses ten symbols: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.
Why is hex only 15? ›In hex, four digits of a binary number can be represented by a single hex digit. Dividing a binary number into 4-bit sets means that each set can have a possible value of between 0000 and 1111, allowing 16 number combinations from 0 to 15. With the base value as 16, the maximum value of a digit is 15.
How do I convert ASCII code? ›The syntax for converting ASCII Code to char in Java using the Type Casting method is given as: char asciiToChar = (char) ascii; “ascii” is the variable that stores a value of data type “int”.
What is ASCII code table? ›ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Below is the ASCII character table, including descriptions of the first 32 characters. ASCII was originally designed for use with teletypes, and so the descriptions are somewhat obscure and their use is frequently not as intended.
How to use ASCII table? ›To insert an ASCII character, press and hold down ALT while typing the character code. For example, to insert the degree (º) symbol, press and hold down ALT while typing 0176 on the numeric keypad. You must use the numeric keypad to type the numbers, and not the keyboard.
Why is ASCII 128 and not 256? ›
The most significant bit was sometimes used as a parity bit to perform a parity check (a form of error checking). Other computers set the most significant bit to 0. So ASCII represents 128 characters (the equivalent of 7 bits) with 8 bits rather than 256.
How many ASCII characters are there 128 or 256? ›ASCII is a 7-bit code - one bit (binary digit) is a single switch that can be on or off, zero or one. Character sets used today in the US are generally 8-bit sets with 256 different characters, effectively doubling the ASCII set. One bit can have 2 possible states.
What is 128 to 255 ASCII? ›Characters with values from 128 to 255 are the "Extended" character set. To actually display most of the extended character set you must use an escape character in a string to create that character. The escape character is "\xnnn". Where nnn is the hexidecimal value for the character.
How do I convert hex to readable text? ›- Get hex byte.
- Convert hex byte to decimal.
- Get character of ASCII code from ASCII table.

What is hex code example? ›A hex color code is a 6-symbol code made of up to three 2-symbol elements. Each of the 2-symbol elements expresses a color value from 0 to 255.

How do you convert hex to base 16? ›
To convert the hex number we start with the right-most value and multiply it by 160. That gives us zero, as 0 * 1 equals nothing. Next, we take the 1 and multiply it by 161. That returns 16, and so the hexadecimal number 10 translates to the decimal number 16 (16 + 0 = 16).
