What Is Uppercase O Grave?

How It Works

1. Named: &Ograve; (capital O) is the clearest HTML form for U+00D2. Lowercase &ograve; is a different character (ò).

2. Hex: U+00D2 → &#xD2; in HTML. Same glyph as the named entity.

3. Decimal: same code point as 210 → &#210;. Same glyph as hex and named.

4. CSS: use \00D2 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that Ò after the paragraph text.

5. Typed / word: paste Ò in UTF-8, or build Italian words like PER&Ograve; with lang="it".

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with U+00D2.

Case

&Ograve; ≠ &ograve;

&Ograve; → Ò (capital). &ograve; → ò (lowercase). Entity names are case-sensitive.

vs Ó

Not an acute

Ó (&Oacute;) is O with acute. Grave Ò and acute Ó are different letters.

vs Ȍ

Not a double grave

Ȍ is O with double grave (phonology/IPA). Do not swap single grave and double grave.

Encoding

Keep UTF-8 declared

Latin-1 letters display reliably with <meta charset="UTF-8">. Prefer named entities when the source file encoding is uncertain.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\00D2 belongs in CSS strings. &Ograve; / &#xD2; / &#210; belong in HTML.

A11y

Use real language context

When Ò appears in Italian or Catalan words, keep surrounding text and lang accurate (for example it) so screen readers get useful context.
