In trying to get a visual for all the Alt codes (Alt + Numpad number = special character), I wrote the following in HTML/Javascript:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Characters</title>
</head>
<body style="color:#00FF00; background-color:#000000;">
<h1>The goal of this program is to print out characters and their Alt code references.</h1>
<p>If failed at showing the Alt codes. It shows instead JavaScript's fromCharCode outputs.</p>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
var text = "";
var i;
var j;
for (i = 0; i < 65560; i=i+10) {
text += i + " "
for (j = 0; j < 10; j++) {
text += String.fromCharCode(i+j)+ " "
}
text += "<br>";
}
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = text;
</script>
</body>
</html> This doesn’t give the Alt codes, it gives JavaScript’s fromCharCode outputs. Still an interesting result.
