Frequently asked questions

What about extended ASCII (128-255)?
Codes 128-255 are not standard ASCII — they depend on the code page (Latin-1, Windows-1252, etc.) or, in Unicode/UTF-8, encode the start of multi-byte sequences. The Unicode Lookup tool handles those.
Why are some characters blank?
Codes 0-31 and 127 are control characters (NUL, BEL, BS, ESC, DEL, etc.) that don't have a printable glyph.
Is the table case-sensitive when searching?
Searches are case-insensitive across decimal, hex, octal, the character itself and the name.
