Remember
Character ➳
Unicode U+27B3
Hex entity ➳
Decimal ➳
CSS escape \27B3
Named entity (none)
Not the same ➵ U+27B5 (black feathered)
All of these produce the same glyph: ➳. Prefer typing ➳ in UTF-8 when you can; use numeric or CSS forms for generated content. For a plain right arrow, prefer → (U+2192).
White feathered right arrow using Hex Code: ➳
White feathered right arrow using HTML Code: ➳
White feathered right arrow using CSS Entity: ➳
Typed directly: ➳
How It Works
1. Hex:U+27B3 → ➳ in HTML. The browser turns it into ➳.
2. Decimal: same code point as 10163 → ➳. Same result as hex.
3. CSS: use \27B3 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ➳ after the paragraph text.
4. Typed ➳: fine in UTF-8 source. There is no named entity for this symbol.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with white feathered right arrow (➳).
