The table displays 256 possible character entities (the numbers down the side represent 16^n, the numbers across the top represent 0..16 (0..f in hexadecimal). If your default sans-serif font does not have a representation for the character you may see a "?". Or a toad. Or some other undefined glyph.
The select list is used to increase the table by 16^3*n.
