This is merely a selection of the special characters that I´ve
found useful when writing for the web. But there are lots more.
Martin Ramsch has got a good list at http://www.ramsch.org/martin/uni/fmi-hp/iso8859-1.html
Otherwise,
try a search for “ISO 8859-1 table” (if that is the encoding
you want), “HTML special characters” or something similar:
