In HTML and XML, a numeric character reference refers to a character by its Universal Coded Character Set/Unicode code point, and uses the format: &#xhhhh;. or &#nnnn; where the x must be lowercase in XML documents, hhhh is the code point in hexadecimal form, and nnnn is the code point in decimal form.
The name of an HTML element is the name used in the tags. The end tag's name is preceded by a slash character /. If a tag has no content, an end tag is not allowed. If attributes are not mentioned, default values are used in each case.

Single quote has to be used in the SVG data as double quote is used for encapsulating the image source. A favicon can also be made with utf8 encoding and SVG data which has to appear in the 'head' section of the HTML:
The format is the same as for any entity reference: &name; where name is the case-sensitive name of the entity. The semicolon is required. Because numbers are harder for humans to remember than names, character entity references are most often written by humans, while numeric character references are most often produced by computer programs.

The W3C standard XML Entity Definitions for Characters April 1, 2010 is the final authority on entity names. The ISO original standards committee (ISO/IECJTC1 SC34) invited the W3C MathML working group to take over the maintenance and development of entity names. The Unicode Consortium accepts the ISO recommendation.
A link relation is a descriptive attribute attached to a hyperlink in order to define the type of the link, or the relationship between the source and destination resources. The attribute can be used by automated systems, or can be presented to a user in a different way. In HTML these are designated with the rel attribute on link, a, or area ...
