Not the same Ø · Ó · ǿ
Prefer Ǿ or Ǿ in HTML markup. You can also type Ǿ in UTF-8. There is no named entity. For the lowercase letter, use U+01FF (ǿ).
Using Hex Code: Ǿ
Using HTML Code: Ǿ
Using CSS Entity: Ǿ
Typed directly: Ǿ
Not Ø (stroke only) or Ó (acute only)
How It Works
1. Hex:U+01FE → Ǿ in HTML. The browser turns it into Ǿ.
2. Decimal: same code point as 510 → Ǿ. Same result as hex.
3. CSS: use \01FE in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that Ǿ after the paragraph text.
4. Typed / compare: paste Ǿ in UTF-8. Keep Ø (stroke only) and Ó (acute only) as separate characters.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with U+01FE.
Named
No &O…; name
HTML5 has no named entity for U+01FE. Use Ǿ or Ǿ — do not invent a name.
vs Ø
Not stroke alone
Ø (Ø) has the diagonal stroke but no acute. Ǿ needs both marks.
vs Ó
Not acute alone
Ó (Ó) is Ó with no stroke. Do not swap the two.
vs ǿ
Case matters
Ǿ is capital. ǿ is lowercase. Use the matching code point for each case.
Encoding
Keep UTF-8 declared
Latin Extended-B letters display reliably with <meta charset="UTF-8">. Prefer numeric entities when encoding is uncertain.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\01FE belongs in CSS strings. Ǿ / Ǿ belong in HTML.
A11y
Use real language context
When Ǿ appears in Faroese text, keep surrounding text and lang accurate (for example lang="fo").
