Not all [[web browser]]s or [[email client]]s used by receivers of HTML documents, or [[text editor]]s used by authors of HTML documents, will be able to '''render all HTML characters'''. Most modern [[web browsers]] are able to display many more characters than the latest versions of [[Microsoft]] [[Internet Explorer]]. This is due to different "font linking" capabilities that allow [[glyph]]s to be used from fonts according to what characters are needed and supported by the fonts on the system.
For codes from 0 to 127, the original 7-bit [[ASCII]] standard set, most of these characters can be used without a character reference. Codes from 160 to 255 can all be created using [[List of XML and HTML character entity references|character entity names]]. Only a few higher-numbered codes can be created using entity names, but all can be created by decimal number character reference.
