When to use it

A list bullet. For real lists use <ul> and style the marker with CSS ::marker instead of typing bullets.

In HTML, CSS and JavaScript

<p>&bull;</p>           <!-- or the character itself in a UTF-8 page -->

.note::before { content: "\2022"; }

const s = "\u2022";

In a page saved as UTF-8 (the default today) you can paste the character directly; the entity is only needed when it must survive a non-UTF-8 system. Encode or decode whole texts with the HTML Entity Encoder.

How to type bullet point

  • Windows: hold Alt and type 0149 on the numeric keypad.
  • Mac: Option + 8 (US keyboard layout).
  • Linux: Ctrl + Shift + U, then 2022 and Enter.
HTML Entity EncoderEscape < > & " so text is safe to show in HTML, convert accents and symbols to named or numeric entities, or decode entity-filled HTML back to plain text.
