Hex + Decimal + CSS + Typed

Four ways to display ⟱ in HTML and CSS.

html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Down Quadruple Arrow (U+27F1) in HTML</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\27F1";
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Built with Hex: &#x27F1;</p>
  <p>Built with Decimal: &#10225;</p>
  <p id="point">Built with CSS: </p>
  <p>Typed: ⟱</p>
  <p>Label: Jump ⟱</p>
</body>
</html>

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: ⟱ inserts code point U+27F1 → ⟱.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10225 → ⟱. Same visual as hex.

3. CSS: use \27F1 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends ⟱.

4. Typed: paste ⟱ in a UTF-8 document, or pair it with a label.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Down Quadruple Arrow.

Name

No named entity

There is no HTML5 named entity for U+27F1. Use ⟱ or ⟱.

⇓

Not &dArr;

&dArr; is the double down arrow (U+21D3). U+27F1 has four shafts.

⤋

Not the triple form

U+290B is the triple down arrow. Count the shafts before you choose.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\27F1 belongs in CSS strings. ⟱ / ⟱ belong in HTML.

Fonts

Arrow font coverage

Some fonts omit Supplemental Arrows-A glyphs. Prefer a font with solid arrow coverage.

a11y

Add accessible text

A lone quadruple arrow can be unclear to screen readers. Pair it with visible text or an aria-label.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish numeric entities with ; — write ⟱, not &#x27F1.
