You need to replace the ampersand and copyright symbol with html codes. Use the "HTML Name" instead of the "HTML Number".

Yes. You are supposed to replace the Ā© with &copy; which you can find in that link I gave you. Do the same for the ampersand.

I always google whatever I need so for example...

  1. go to google.com and type html copyright
  2. You will see google shows to type &copy;
  3. Copy/paste or type &copy; in your html document wherever you want to use the copyright symbol. Does this help?
