The table below is according to Windows-1252 character set which is a super set of ISO-8859-1. In ISO-8859-1, the characters from 128 to 159 are not defined.

The Extended (8-bit) ASCII character set has several variations. Following are the most widely used 8-bit character sets -
Windows-1252 was the first default character set in Windows. The first part of Windows-1252 character set (0 - 127
) is same as the original ASCII character set. It contains upper and lowercase alphabets (A-Za-z
), digits (0-9
), special characters (e.g. []{}()<>?|$@#
), and control characters (e.g. \n
, \b
, \t
).
The next part which consists of entity numbers ranging from 128 to 255 has some useful symbols and signs. The extended ASCII table shown in this page follows Windows-1252 character set.
The ISO-8859-1 character set was the default character set in HTML 4.01. It is an ISO standard. ISO (International Standards Organization) defines the standard character sets for different languages/alphabets.
ISO-8859-1 is very similar to Windows-1252 character set. The only difference is that in ISO-8859-1, the characters from 128 to 159 are not defined.
