特殊字符“>”不使用UTF-8显示

Question

Here are my codes below:

    ul.pathnav a:before{
    content:"\0X3E";
    text-decoration:none;
      }

\\0x3e is the hex for ">", but it doesn't work. I tried another special character, it works just fine. For example: in downwards filled triangle, which hex code is \\25BC.

Not quite sure what should I add. In the header the code is:

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8">

Answer 1

The character escape syntax in CSS uses just the backslash \\ followed by hexadecimal digits and possibly a whitespace character. An X is neither needed nor allowed here. So a proper syntax using an escape would be

content: "\3E";

On the other hand, there is no need to escape the GREATER THAN character > in a CSS string, so you can write just

content: ">";

Answer 2

content:"\0X3E";

should be written as

content:"\03e";

page for ">" character

Answer 3

Use \\3E instead of \\0X3E

p:before {
    content:"\3E";
    text-decoration:none;
}

/\\
