How It Works
1. Hex:U+2914 → ⤔ in HTML. The browser turns it into ⤔.
2. Decimal: same code point as 10516 → ⤔. Same result as hex.
3. CSS: use \2914 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 ⤔ or ⤔.
↣
Not plain tailed arrow
↣ (↣) has a tail but no vertical stroke. Use U+2914 only when you need both.
⤕
Not double stroke
U+2915 has two vertical strokes. U+2914 has one — do not swap them.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\2914 belongs in CSS. ⤔ / ⤔ 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 ⤔, not ⤔.
