Important Web Terminology: Unicode Character

It is designed to

Allow single documents to contain characters or text from multiple languages and scripts

Allow those documents to be used on computers with operating systems in any language and still remain intelligible.

It is therefore ideally suited to the World Wide Web.

HTML 4.0 Specification has adopted Universal Characred Set (Unicode Standard 3.0 equivalent) as the document character set for HTML.

The current version (5.0.0) of the Unicode Standard , developed by the Unicode Consortium, assigns a unique identifier to each of 99,024 graphical and formatting characters, covering the scripts of the world’s principal written languages and many mathematical and other symbols.
