Hyperlatex recognizes the accent commands 
      \'    \`   \^   \~
However, not all possible accents are available in HTML. Hyperlatex will make a HTML-entity for the accents in ISO Latin 1, but will reject all other accent sequences. The command \c can be used to put a cedilla on a letter `c' (either case), but on no other letter. The following is legal 
     Der K{\"o}nig sa\ss{} am wei{\ss}en Strand von Cura\c{c}ao und
     nippte an einer Pi\~{n}a Colada \ldots
and produces
Der König saß am weißen Strand von Curaçao und nippte an einer Piña Colada ...
  Not legal are Ji{\v r}\'{\i}, or Erd\H{o}s. To get a `í', you have to type \'{\i}, not \'\i.

Hyperlatex understands the following symbols:

oe \oe å \aa ¿ ?`
OE \OE Å \AA ¡ !`
æ \ae ø \o ß \ss
Æ \AE Ø \O
§ \S © \copyright
\P £ \pounds
\quad and \qquad produce some empty space.
