Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+295F → ⥟ in HTML. The browser turns it into ⥟.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10591 → ⥟. Same result as hex.

3. Named: &DownRightTeeVector; is the HTML5 name for this character.

4. CSS: use \295F in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⥟ after the paragraph text.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Right Harpoon With Barb Down From Bar.

Look-alikes

⥟ ≠ ⥗ ≠ ⇁

&DownRightTeeVector; (from bar), &DownRightVectorBar; (to bar), and single &rhard; are different characters.

Name

Match the spelling exactly

Use &DownRightTeeVector;. Nearby names like &DownRightVectorBar; and &DownLeftTeeVector; map to other points.

Fonts

Glyph may be missing

Supplemental Arrows-B coverage varies. Test on your target devices or provide a fallback font.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\295F belongs in CSS. &DownRightTeeVector; / ⥟ / ⥟ belong in HTML.

A11y

Add nearby words

Pair the glyph with equation text or use aria-label when it stands alone.

Semicolon

End references

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