This page contains arrows for VKontakte (and not only) from Unicode. A lot of them. Perhaps more than us. I wouldn't be surprised if someday they take over the world. And it’s not a fact that this is bad. They are already everywhere now. Look around, you'll probably see at least one. Well, or something similar, something that can be used instead. They are watching and waiting. So far they have done more good than harm. Let's hope it stays that way. Well, let’s help the pointer symbols get deeper into social networks.

I’ll say a few words about the history of the appearance of arrows. They appeared on pants in the 19th century due to the fact that, after being transported in tight bales, the pants were difficult to iron out. They were painted before our eyes back in ancient Egypt. I don’t know when signs appeared on the area. Probably even before the creation of the first written language. In Unicode, arrows appeared in stages. Although they have their own separate section and two additional ones, various directional indicators can be seen in several more sections. For example, in various technical symbols or in dingbats.

Arrows symbols for social networks

Black arrows are required and, of course. After all, they indicate the direction. Here, for example, to the right and down: ⇘. But to the southeast: ➘. Wonderful, isn't it?

Signs come in a variety of types and sizes. Wavy, broken, bold, black, white. Some are not even typical. Take a look at this shaded right-handed spearhead: ➤. This can decorate any message, status or. Above are signs for every taste and size. Many different ones, very many. Someday they will take over... There was a cure somewhere...

To copy an arrow somewhere on VKontakte, select it with the mouse and copy it somewhere on VKontakte.

Typewritten text consists of printed characters - graphic symbols.
Graphic symbols are symbols that have a visible display in the text.
All graphic symbols are collected in a set of a single universal Unicode system.
Insert a Unicode graphic symbol into an html document
- the main and only purpose for this table.

You can insert a symbol into an HTML document in one of the following ways:

1. copy the symbol image from the browser window to the window of your visual html editor
2. copy the html code of the symbol directly into the code of the html document

Please understand that these are two different methods:

1. insert visual into visual
2. insert code into code.

The font for a symbol, its size and color in HTML can be set with code like:
CHARACTER_CODE
Where,
Arial - font,
10px - font size in pixels,
#ff0000 - font color code (red)

For example:
☎ - character font size 30px,
☎ - symbol font size 30px, color - red
☎ - character font size 20px,
☎ - symbol font size 10px.
Note Recommended fonts for inserting special characters are Arial, Verdana and Tahoma. These fonts display Unicode characters correctly and are themselves correctly supported by web applications.

1. "Symbol"
   (visible symbol display)
   From this column you can copy the symbol image and paste it into the html text editor window. The symbol will be copied with a font size of 20px. After copying is complete, it may be necessary to individually adjust the font size directly to the copied character.
2. "Name"
   (only for important or strange characters)
   Explanation of the purpose of the symbol, its scope, examples...
3. "Mnemonics"
   A mnemonics is an alphabetic construction of the form ", denoting the alphabetic code of a character in HTML. It is inserted directly into the html code of an html document. Mnemonics are very popular among professional layout designers. They are perfectly memorized by humans and are supported by all html applications. Each mnemonics contains an alphabetic name (designation ) of its symbol and a service sign (&), which serves as a signal for the browser to read the code and is not displayed on the monitor screen.The name of each mnemonic is unique and easy to read, because it is derived from the English word that characterizes the symbol.

   Mnemonics (Greek) - the art of remembering something. Mnemonics are used to facilitate the perception of difficult-to-memorize information when the object of memorization is brought into an associative state with something.

4. "Code"
   Code - the numeric decimal code of a character in HTML, like &. Inserted directly into the html code of an html document. The decimal code consists of a number indicating the serial number of the character in the Unicode system and several service characters (& and #), which serve as a signal for the browser to read the code and are not displayed on the monitor screen. The decimal code is widely used and used due to its versatility and ease of perception.

Control characters in HTML (XHTML)

Control characters in HTML (XHTML) are service characters of the HTML language that are used in the HTML layout of a web page. Any browser must support these characters, since without them it is impossible to display HTML text correctly. Control characters are not displayed in the text and, when entered directly from the keyboard, are interpreted by the browser as punctuation marks calling for some action to be performed when the page is drawn on the screen.

It is allowed to use control characters in ordinary texts, where they symbolize universal concepts and are interpreted by the browser as ordinary typographical characters. When using service symbols in HTML texts in this way, you need to enter not the value of the symbol itself, but its HTML code. Because, I repeat, otherwise the browser will perceive the service symbol as a call to action and will not correctly display the HTML text on the monitor screen.

Control characters and their HTML code are known and understood by all browsers without exception, which cannot be said, alas, about other characters that may be displayed incorrectly in different browsers or, even worse, not be displayed at all.

HTML special characters are special language constructs that refer to characters from the character set used in text files. The table shows a list of reserved and special characters that cannot be added to source HTML document using the keyboard:

• characters that cannot be entered using the keyboard (for example, a copyright symbol)
• characters intended for marking (for example, a greater than or less than sign)

Such characters are added using a numeric code or name.

Why are special characters needed and how to use them

Let's say you decide to describe some tag on your page, but since the browser uses characters< и >like the start and end of a tag, applying them inside the content of your html code can lead to problems. But HTML gives you easy way define these and other special characters using simple abbreviations called references to symbols.

Let's look at how this works. For each character that is considered special or that you want to use on your web page but that cannot be printed in your editor (for example, the copyright symbol), you find the abbreviation and print it in the html code instead of the desired character. For example, for the symbol ">" the abbreviation is > , and for the symbol "<" - < .

Let's say you wanted to print "Element very important" on his page. Instead, you will have to use references to the symbols you need to display the entry correctly, and in the end your entry in the code should look like this:

Element very important

Try »

Another special character you need to know about is the & (ampersand) symbol. If you want it to appear on your HTML page, use the & link instead of the & symbol.
