When to use it

The currency of the eurozone. Placement varies: “€10” in English, “10 €” in French and German.

In HTML, CSS and JavaScript

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

.note::before { content: "\20AC"; }

const s = "\u20AC";

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 euro sign

  • Windows: hold Alt and type 0128 on the numeric keypad.
  • Mac: Option + Shift + 2 (US keyboard layout).
  • Linux: Ctrl + Shift + U, then 20AC 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.
