What Is the Right Harpoon With Barb Up From Bar Entity?

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+295B → ⥛ in HTML. The browser turns it into ⥛.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10587 → ⥛. Same result as hex.

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

4. CSS: use \295B 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 Up From Bar.

Look-alikes

⥛ ≠ ⥓ ≠ ⇀

&RightTeeVector; (from bar), &RightVectorBar; (to bar), and single &rharu; are different characters.

Name

Match the spelling exactly

Use &RightTeeVector;. Nearby names like &RightVectorBar; and &DownRightTeeVector; map to other points.

Fonts

Glyph may be missing

CSS vs HTML

Add nearby words

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

End references

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