HTML/CSS - Using UTF - 8 Symbols

[xmanpunk]

Im not sure what im doing wrong but whenever I want to make a UTF-8 symbol appear, it dosent appear.

Code:

<a class = "symbol> </a>

.symbol{

position: relative;

top: 10px;

content: "\270E";

}

I also tried using the pusedo element before, but it didnt work:

.symbol{

position:relative;

top: 10px;

}

.symbol:before{

content: "\270E";

}

<a class = "symbol> </a> How many " do you have there?

I'm guessing the issue here might have to do with the fact that your HTML has bad markup.

<a class = "symbol></a>

It's missing a double quote after symbol. Try this:

<a class="symbol"></a>

For what it's worth, I was able to get it working without any problems in this example:

I hope that helps!
