ð is Eth, a letter used in Icelandic and Faroese. On HTML, the quickest way to get it is ð. This guide covers every method that works, including the capital Ð and fixes for common problems.

ð on HTML: ð

Ð on HTML: Ð

Or copy it:

Method 1: Codes for web pages

Format	Code for ð
Named entity	`ð`
Decimal entity	`ð`
Hex entity	`ð`
CSS content	`content: "\00F0";`
JavaScript	`"\u00F0"`
URL encoded	`%C3%B0`
UTF-8 bytes	`C3 B0`

Method 2: Type it directly with UTF-8

If your page starts with <meta charset="utf-8"> and the file is saved as UTF-8, you can paste ð straight into the HTML. Entities are only needed when your editor or database cannot store the character.

Method 3: Watch for normalization

ð can also be written as d plus a combining mark. Both look the same but compare as different strings. In JavaScript, call str.normalize("NFC") before comparing or searching.

About the letter ð

ð is Unicode U+00F0, named LATIN SMALL LETTER ETH. It is used in Icelandic and Faroese. See the ð character page for every code and shortcut.

Troubleshooting

If you see Ã and other symbols, the file is UTF-8 but the browser reads it as Windows-1252. Add the meta charset tag.
Named entities are case sensitive: É and é are different letters.
In XML and XHTML only five named entities exist, so use numeric codes there.
