How to Use Cross Mark

To use the Cross Mark symbol (❌) in HTML, insert the entity ❌ directly into your markup. The decimal entity ❌ works in any HTML-serialised document.

In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\274C';. In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u274C' evaluates to ❌. In Python source, write '\u274C'.

The character encodes to E2 9D 8C as UTF-8 bytes and 274C as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 10060.

This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
