Named + Hex + Decimal + CSS + Typed

Five ways to produce ⤞, plus a short UI-style label.

html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Right Arrow Black Diamond (⤞) in HTML</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\291E";
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Using Named Entity: &rarrfs;</p>
  <p>Using Hex Code: &#x291E;</p>
  <p>Using HTML Code: &#10526;</p>
  <p id="point">Using CSS Entity: </p>
  <p>Typed directly: ⤞</p>
  <p>Next &rarrfs;</p>
</body>
</html>
Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Named: &rarrfs; is the HTML5 name for U+291E → ⤞. Best default in markup.

2. Hex: U+291E → &#x291E; in HTML. Same glyph as the named form.

3. Decimal: same code point as 10526 → &#10526;. Same result as hex and named.

4. CSS: use \291E in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⤞ after the paragraph text.

5. Typed / UI: paste ⤞ in UTF-8, or write labels like Next &rarrfs; for a short navigation cue.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Right Arrow Black Diamond.

→

Not a plain right arrow

&rarr; is → (U+2192). Use &rarrfs; when you need the black diamond tip.

⤠

Not &rarrbfs;

&rarrbfs; (U+2920) starts from a bar and ends in a diamond. &rarrfs; has no from-bar start.

⤝

Direction matters

&larrfs; is the leftwards counterpart. Do not flip → with CSS unless accessible text matches.

Fonts

Supplemental Arrows coverage

Some UI fonts omit U+291E. Prefer a math/symbol font for display.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\291E belongs in CSS strings. &rarrfs; / &#x291E; / &#10526; belong in HTML.

Semicolon

End named entities

Always finish with ; — write &rarrfs;, not &rarrfs.

Browser Support

Right arrow black diamond (U+291E) and its entity forms (&rarrfs;, &#x291E;, &#10526;, CSS \\291E) are supported in all mainstream browsers. Visible glyphs depend on Supplemental Arrows font coverage.

✓ Universal support

Key Takeaways

  • Unicode: this mark is U+291E (decimal 10526) — glyph ⤞.
  • HTML: prefer &rarrfs; — also &#x291E; / &#10526; / type ⤞.
  • CSS: use \291E inside content for generated text.
  • Meaning: ⤞ = right arrow to black diamond — not &rarr;, not &rarrbfs;.

One line: U+291E → &rarrfs; / &#x291E; / &#10526; / CSS \291E.
