That page contains either 1 big error ("ISO Latin 1"), or
32 small errors (€ through Ÿ are entirely wrong).
The author has actually described Windows-1252 (CP 1252),
not ISO-8859-1 (Latin 1).
Either way, it's not "all" the "escape codes". You can go all
the way up to 􏿽, minus a handful that aren't allowed
in XML.
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#dt-charref
explains what a character reference is, and that the reference
for what numbers mean what characters is ISO/IEC 10646, not
ISO/IEC 8859-1. Since the coded character set defined by
ISO/IEC 10646 is identical to that of Unicode, you can use
Unicode as a reference.
http://www.unicode.org/charts/ should be helpful.
http://www.eki.ee/letter/ is very useful, too.
