html - What character encoding is gt;? - Stack Overflow In HTML, you can write the greater than sign ">" as gt; and the less than symbol "<" as lt; Is this encoding defined by the HTML encoding or some standard like ISO, UTF-xxx, BaseXXX, etc?
html - What do lt; and gt; stand for? - Stack Overflow I know that the entities lt; and gt; are used for < and >, but I am curious what these names stand for Does lt; stand for something like "Left tag" or is it just a code?
HTML: Should I encode greater than or not? ( gt; gt; ) authors should use " gt; " (ASCII decimal 62) in text instead of ">" so I believe you should encode the greater > sign as gt; (because you should obey the standards)
