Hex + Decimal + CSS + Typed

Four ways to produce ⤗ in a single document (no named entity).

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+2917 → &#x2917; in HTML. The browser turns it into ⤗.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10519 → &#10519;. Same result as hex.

3. CSS: use \2917 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⤗ after the paragraph text.

4. Typed: paste ⤗ in a UTF-8 document when you prefer the character itself. There is no named entity for this code point.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Right Two Headed Arrow Tail Vertical Stroke.

Name

No named entity

HTML5 has no name for U+2917. Use &#x2917; or &#10519;. Do not invent a fake named reference.

Look-alikes

⤗ ≠ ⤖ ≠ ⤘

&Rarrtl; has no stroke mark. &#x2918; has a double stroke. &#x2917; has a single stroke.

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

\2917 belongs in CSS. &#x2917; / &#10519; belong in HTML.

A11y

Add nearby words

Pair the glyph with label text (for example Flow &#x2917;) or use aria-label when it stands alone.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish with ; — write &#x2917;, not &#x2917.
