note that these are not ascii codes. ascii only goes up to 127. the extended ascii characters for 169, 174, and 153 are ⌐, «, and Ö. the numbers are actually Unicode, which is why you get (C), (R), and (TM) instead of the extended ascii characters, which would have a completely different meaning.

anyway, you're better off using © ® and ™

It may be true that you can use those specific elements in place of the unicode, but one very nice thing about Unicode characters is that you can be assured that they will not change meaning over time, other than possible different interpretations of it by different languages/browsers.

You can try holding down Alt and typing in 0174 for ® and Alt + 0169 for © etc... just use the character map (Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Character map) and you should be able to view the code for the symbol at the bottom left corner of the window..

Thanks for the reminder

Thanks! This helps out a lot! I searched for "html trademark code" (without the quotes) and this blog entry was on the first page! Nice!

Six years later, this info still comes in handy. Thanks!
