<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Right Arrow Tail Double Vertical Stroke (⤕) in HTML</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\2915";
    }
  </style>
</head>

  <p>Typed directly: ⤕</p>
</body>
</html>
Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+2915 → &#x2915; in HTML. The browser turns it into ⤕.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10517 → &#10517;. Same result as hex.

3. CSS: use \2915 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⤕ after the paragraph text.

4. Typed ⤕: fine in UTF-8 source. All four lines show the same glyph.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with this arrow (⤕).

Named?

No named entity

HTML5 does not define a named entity for ⤕. Use &#x2915; or &#10517;.

↣

Not plain tailed arrow

&rarrtl; (↣) has a tail but no double vertical stroke. Use U+2915 only when you need both.

⤔

Not single stroke

U+2914 has one vertical stroke. U+2915 has two — do not swap them.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\2915 belongs in CSS. &#x2915; / &#10517; belong in HTML.

Encoding

Declare UTF-8

If you type ⤕ directly, keep <meta charset="UTF-8"> so the file is not misread.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish with ; — write &#10517;, not &#10517.
