Chinese Characters in html

I recently needed to show chinese characters on a website. I found out that you can use a numeric character reference to display the characters. Now all I needed was a way to translate the characters to decimal numeric character references. Here’s a website with some tools to do so. http://www.mdbg.net/chindict/chindict.php?page=tools

I simple copy the chinese characters into the section title “convert text to HTML code”. Then, copy the resultant numerical references into the html document. 你 would be replaced by &#20320 ;
