How It Works
1. Hex:U+01F8 → Ǹ in HTML. Preferred numeric form when you need an entity.
2. Decimal: same code point as 504 → Ǹ. Same glyph as hex.
3. CSS: use \01F8 (four hex digits) in content. Shorter forms can be misread by the CSS parser. #point::after appends that Ǹ.
4. Typed / pair: paste Ǹ in UTF-8, or show both cases with Ǹ / ǹ.
5. No named entity: HTML5 does not define a name for U+01F8 — use numeric references or type the character. Ñ is tilde Ñ, not Ǹ.

Encoding

Latin Extended-B letters display reliably with <meta charset="UTF-8">. Prefer numeric entities when the source file encoding is uncertain.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\01F8 belongs in CSS strings. Ǹ / Ǹ belong in HTML.
