I'm looking for a HTML or ASCII character which is a triangle pointing up or down so that I can use it as a toggle switch.
I found ↑ (↑), and ↓ (↓) - but those have a narrow stem. I'm looking just for the HTML arrow "head".
Unicode arrows heads:
▲ - U+25B2 BLACK UP-POINTING TRIANGLE
▼ - U+25BC BLACK DOWN-POINTING TRIANGLE
▴ - U+25B4 SMALL BLACK UP-POINTING TRIANGLE
▾ - U+25BE SMALL BLACK DOWN-POINTING TRIANGLE
For ▲ and ▼ use ▲ and ▼ respectively if you cannot include Unicode characters directly (use UTF-8!).
Note that the font support for the smaller versions is not as good. Better to use the large versions in smaller font.
More Unicode arrows are at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_%28symbol%29#Arrows_in_Unicode
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_Shapes
Lastly, these arrows are not ASCII, including ↑ and ↓: they are Unicode.
For HTML Entities
◄ = ◄
► = ►
▼ = ▼
▲ = ▲
OPTION 1: UNICODE COLUMN SORT ARROWS
(Looks good upscaled)
⇕ = ⇕

IMPORTANT NOTE (When using Unicode symbols) Unicode support varies dependant on the symbol of choice, browser and the font family. If you find your chosen symbol does not work in some browsers then try using a different font-family. Microsoft recommends "Segoe UI Symbol" however it would be wise to include the font with your website as not many people have it on their computers.
Open this page in other browsers to see which symbols render with the default font.
Some more unicode arrows.
To use them:
Copy them right off the page. Use the code above each row inserting the corresponding hexadeximal number before the closing semi-colon relating to it's poition in the row.

OPTION 2: PURE CSS CHEVRONS
You can create the chevrons efficiently using only CSS
(No images required).
It's easy to manipulate:
ROTATION
THICKNESS
COLOR
SIZE
https://i.stack.imgur.com/x7HGq.jpg
CSS (Efficient with cross browser support)
.chevron { position: relative; display: block; height: 50px; /*height should be double border*/ } .chevron::before, .chevron::after { position: absolute; display: block; content: ""; border: 25px solid transparent; /*adjust size*/ } /* Replace all text `top` below with left/right/bottom to rotate the chevron */ .chevron::before { top: 0; border-top-color: #b00; /*Chevron Color*/ } .chevron::after { top: -10px; /*adjust thickness*/ border-top-color: #fff; /*Match background colour*/ }
OPTION 3: CSS BASE64 IMAGE ICONS
https://i.stack.imgur.com/WIULm.gif
https://i.stack.imgur.com/GTmwP.gif
https://i.stack.imgur.com/Iv3Nu.gif
Using only a few lines of CSS we can encode our images into base64.
PROS
No need to include additional resources in the form of images or fonts.
Supports full alpha transparency.
Full cross-browser support.
Small images/icons can be stored in a database.
CONS
Updating/editing can become a hassle.
Not suitable for large images due to excessive code markup that's generated.
CSS
.sorting,
.sorting_asc,
.sorting_desc{

Sorry but they are only in Unicode. :(
Big ones:
U+25B2 (Black up-pointing triangle ▲)
U+25BC (Black down-pointing triangle ▼)
U+25C0 (Black left-pointing triangle ◀)
U+25B6 (Black right-pointing triangle ▶)
Big white ones:
U+25B3 (White up-pointing triangle △)
U+25BD (White down-pointing triangle ▽)
U+25C1 (White left-pointing triangle ◁)
U+25B7 (White right-pointing triangle ▷)
There is also some smalller triangles:
U+25B4 (Black up-pointing small triangle ▴)
U+25C2 (Black left-pointing small triangle ◂)
U+25BE (Black down-pointing small triangle ▾)
U+25B8 (Black right-pointing small triangle ▸)
Also some white ones:
U+25C3 (White left-pointing small triangle ◃)
U+25BF (White down-pointing small triangle ▿)
U+25B9 (White right-pointing small triangle ▹)
U+25B5 (White up-pointing small triangle ▵)
There are also some "pointy" triangles. You can read more here in Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_Shapes
But unfortunately, they are all Unicode instead of ASCII. If you still want to use ASCII, then you can use an image file for it of just use ^ and v. (
Just like the Google Maps in the mobile version
this was referring to the ancient mobile Google Maps)
As others also suggested, you can also create triangles with HTML, either with CSS borders or SVG shapes or even JavaScript canvases.
CSS
div{
width: 0px;
height: 0px;
border-top: 10px solid black;
border-left: 8px solid transparent;
border-right: 8px solid transparent;
border-bottom: none;
}
SVG
<svg width="16" height="10">
<polygon points="0,0 16,0 8,10"/>
</svg>
JavaScript
var ctx = document.querySelector("canvas").getContext("2d");
// do not use with() outside of this demo!
with(ctx){
beginPath();
moveTo(0,0);
lineTo(16,0);
lineTo(8,10);
fill();
endPath();
}
Demo
There are literal arrowheads in the Spacing Modifier Letters block:
U+02C2 ˂ ˂ Modifier Letter Left Arrowhead
U+02C3 ˃ ˃ Modifier Letter Right Arrowhead
U+02C4 ˄ ˄ Modifier Letter Up Arrowhead
U+02C5 ˅ ˅ Modifier Letter Down Arrowhead
Since you're using these arrows for a toggle switch you may want to consider creating these arrows with an html element using the following styles instead of unicode characters.
.upparrow {
height: 0;
width: 0;
border: 4px solid transparent;
border-bottom-color: #000;
}
.downarrow {
height: 0;
width: 0;
border: 4px solid transparent;
border-top-color: #000;
}
There are several correct ways to display a down-pointing triangle.
Method 1 : use decimal HTML entity
HTML :
▼
Method 2 : use hexidecimal HTML entity
HTML :
▼
Method 3 : use character directly
HTML :
▼
Method 4 : use CSS
HTML :
<span class='icon-down'></span>
CSS :
.icon-down:before {
content: "\25BC";
}
Each of these three methods should have the same output. For other symbols, the same three options exist. Some even have a fourth option, allowing you to use a string based reference (eg. ♥ to display ♥).
You can use a reference website like Unicode-table.com to find which icons are supported in UNICODE and which codes they correspond with. For example, you find the values for the down-pointing triangle at http://unicode-table.com/en/25BC/.
Note that these methods are sufficient only for icons that are available by default in every browser. For symbols like ☃,❄,★,☂,☭,⎗ or ⎘, this is far less likely to be the case. While it is possible to provide cross-browser support for other UNICODE symbols, the procedure is a bit more complicated.
If you want to know how to add support for less common UNICODE characters, see Create webfont with Unicode Supplementary Multilingual Plane symbols for more info on how to do this.
Background images
A totally different strategy is the use of background-images instead of fonts. For optimal performance, it's best to embed the image in your CSS file by base-encoding it, as mentioned by eg. @weasel5i2 and @Obsidian. I would recommend the use of SVG rather than GIF, however, is that's better both for performance and for the sharpness of your symbols.

When to use background-images or fonts
For many use cases, SVG-based background images and icon fonts are largely equivalent with regards to performance and flexibility. To decide which to pick, consider the following differences:
SVG images
They can have multiple colors
They can embed their own CSS and/or be styled by the HTML document
They can be loaded as a seperate file, embedded in CSS AND embedded in HTML
Each symbol is represented by XML code or base64 code. You cannot use the character directly within your code editor or use an HTML entity
Multiple uses of the same symbol implies duplication of the symbol when XML code is embedded in the HTML. Duplication is not required when embedding the file in the CSS or loading it as a seperate file
You can not use color, font-size, line-height, background-color or other font related styling rules to change the display of your icon, but you can reference different components of the icon as shapes individually.
You need some knowledge of SVG and/or base64 encoding
Limited or no support in old versions of IE
Icon fonts
An icon can have but one fill color, one background color, etc.
An icon can be embedded in CSS or HTML. In HTML, you can use the character directly or use an HTML entity to represent it.
Some symbols can be displayed without the use of a webfont. Most symbols cannot.
Multiple uses of the same symbol implies duplication of the symbol when your character embedded in the HTML. Duplication is not required when embedding the file in the CSS.
You can use color, font-size, line-height, background-color or other font related styling rules to change the display of your icon
You need no special technical knowledge
Support in all major browsers, including old versions of IE
Personally, I would recommend the use of background-images only when you need multiple colors and those color can't be achieved by means of color, background-color and other color-related CSS rules for fonts.
The main benefit of using SVG images is that you can give different components of a symbol their own styling. If you embed your SVG XML code in the HTML document, this is very similar to styling the HTML. This would, however, result in a web page that uses both HTML tags and SVG tags, which could significantly reduce the readability of a webpage. It also adds extra bloat if the symbol is repeated across multiple pages and you need to consider that old versions of IE have no or limited support for SVG.
Usually, best is to see a character in his context.
Here is the full list of Unicode chars, and how your browser currently displays them. I am seeing this list evolving, browser versions after others.
This list is obtained by iteration in decimal of the html entities unicode table, it may take some seconds, but is very useful to me in many cases.
By hovering quickly a given char you will get the dec and hex and the shortcuts to generate it with a keyboard.
var i = 0 do document.write(""+"&#"+i+";"),i++ while (i<136690) window.stop() // From https://codepen.io/Nico_KraZhtest/pen/mWzXqy
The same snippet as a bookmarklet:
javascript:void%20!function(){var%20t=0;do{document.write(%22%3Ca%20title='(Linux|Hex):%20[CTRL+SHIFT]+u%22+t.toString(16)+%22\nHtml%20entity:%20%26%23%20%22+t+%22;\n%26%23x%22+t.toString(16)+%22;\n(Win|Dec):%20[ALT]+%22+t+%22'%20onmouseover='this.focus()'%20onclick='this.href=\%22https://google.com/%3Fq=\%22+this.innerHTML'%20style='cursor:pointer'%20target='new'%3E%26%23%22+t+%22;%3C/a%3E%22),t++}while(t%3C136690);window.stop()}();
To generate that list from php:
for ($x = 0; $x < 136690; $x++) {
echo html_entity_decode('&#'.$x.';',ENT_NOQUOTES,'UTF-8');
}
To generate that list into the console, using php:
php -r 'for ($x = 0; $x < 136690; $x++) { echo html_entity_decode("&#".$x.";",ENT_NOQUOTES,"UTF-8");}'
Here is a plain text extract, of arrows, some are coming with unicode 10.0. http://unicode.org/versions/Unicode10.0.0/
Unicode 10.0 adds 8,518 characters, for a total of 136,690 characters.

Hey, did you notice the plain html <details> element has a drop down arrow? This is sometimes all what we need.
Hello world! How sweat?Morning

"Not ASCII (neither's ↑/↓)" needs qualification.
While these characters are not defined in the American Standard Code for Information Interchange as glyphs, their codes WERE commonly used to give a graphical presentation for ASCII codes 24 and 25 (hex 18 and 19, CANcel and EM:End of Medium). Code page 437 (called Extended ASCII by IBM, includes the numeric codes 128 to 255) defined the use of these glyphs as ASCII codes and the ubiquity of these conventions permeated the industry as seen by their deployment as standards by leading companies such as HP, particularly for printers, and IBM, particularly for microcomputers starting with the original PC.
Just as the use of the ASCII codes for CAN and EM was relatively obsolete at the time, justifying their use as glyphs, so has the passage of time made the use of the codes as glyphs obsolete by the current use of UNICODE conventions.
It should be emphasized that the extensions to ASCII made by IBM in Extended ASCII, included not only a larger numeric set for numeric codes 128 to 255, but also extended the use of some numeric control codes, in the ASCII range 0 to 32, from just media transmission control protocols to include glyphs. It is often assumed, incorrectly, that the first 0 to 128 were not "extended" and that IBM was using the glyphs of conventional ASCII for this range. This error is also perpetrated in one of the previous references. This error became so pervasive that it colloquially redefined ASCII subliminally.
I know I'm late to the party but you can accomplish this with plain CSS as well:
HTML:
(It can be any HTML element, if you're using an inline element like a <span> for example, make sure you make it a block/inline-block element with display:block; or display:inline-block):
<div class="up"></div>
and
<div class="down"></div>
CSS:
.up {
height:0;
width:0;
border-top:100px solid black;
border-left:100px solid transparent;
transform:rotate(-45deg);
}
.down {
height:0;
width:0;
border-bottom:100px solid black;
border-right:100px solid transparent;
transform:rotate(-45deg);
}
You can also accomplish it using :before and :after pseudo-elements, which is actually a better way since you avoid creating extra markup. But that's up to you on how you'd like to accomplish it.

Here's a Demo in CodePen with many arrow possibilities.
A lot of people here are suggesting to use the triangles, but sometimes you need a chevron.
We had a case where our button shows a chevron, and wanted the user's manual to refer to the button in a way which will be recognized by a non-technical user too. So we needed a chevron sign.
We used ﹀ in the end. It is known as PRESENTATION FORM FOR VERTICAL RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET and its code is U+FE40.
I think the asker may be referring to one of these (see attached image) - I found this StackOverflow question while searching for the same thing myself.
Unfortunately, this glyph doesn't seem to exist as a distinct character entity anywhere. Wikipedia accomplishes it below by using inline javascript and img content="data:image/gif..." to achieve the symbol.
Incidentally, here's the base64 for it:

ui-icon-triangle-2-n-s, or ui-icon-caret-2-n-s . But only 16 pixels x 16 pixels, unless you scale it with a transform.
HTML Entities for empty triangles
◁ = ◁
▷ = ▷
▽ = ▽
△ = △
▲▼ These are U+25B2 (▲) and U+25BC (▼) respectively
This one seems to imply that 030 and 031 are up and down triangles.
(As bobince pointed out, this doesn't seem to be an ASCII standard)
I use ▼ and ▲, but they might not work for you. I use alt 11551 for the first one and 11550 for the second one. You can always copy paste them if the ascii isnt the same for your system.
I decided that most popular symbols recommended here (▼ and ▲) are looking too bold, so on the site codepoints.net, recommended by user ADJenks, I found these symbols which are looking better for my taste: 🞀 (U+1F780) 🞁 (U+1F781) 🞂 (U+1F782) 🞃 (U+1F783)
The site I like to use for this is codepoints.net
Here is a search for the words "arrowhead" and "triangle": https://codepoints.net/search?q=arrowhead+triangle
It has some matches for "triangle-headed arrow" that have stems, but it's only 4 small pages to skim over and there are many good matches with nice details on each character.
There is also a code block for "Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows" and this website lists them here: https://codepoints.net/miscellaneous_symbols_and_arrows
Here is another one - ᐞ - Unicode U+141E / CANADIAN SYLLABICS GLOTTAL STOP
Unicode arrows seem pretty much out, because as of 2021 Android phones do not seem to come installed with full Unicode fonts that contain arrows (simply most top language fonts, ie Chinese, Arabic, etc); and a webpage asking to download a decent Unicode font, such as Arial Unicode MS, will put a 22Meg hit on your download time.
FontAwesome is quite useful for these kinds of dingbats. Version 4.7 font-awesome.min.css weighs in at 30KB. sort-up, sort-down, chevron-up, chevron-down provide your characters. https://fontawesome.com/v4.7/get-started/ Works great in regular HTML (text, etc). However it requires rewriting, and so inside literal span contexts is more tricky to use.
jquery already supports icons that people can use, by quietly downloading a 6.8K font image and then taking chunks out of it under the hood. Both carets (chevrons) and triangles (arrowheads). See https://api.jqueryui.com/theming/icons/ for a catalog. After including jquery, include a glyph by using code <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-arrowthick-1-n"></span>. The up and down arrows you requested are ui-icon-caret-1-n and ui-icon-caret-1-s (for north and south); the carets are better than triangles for looking pointy at low resolutions. And they can be colorized.
Unfortunately, jquery currently appears hardwired to display icons at 16x16 pixel resolution--grain-of-sand on today's monitors. They can be enlarged using the transform function. But it starts to get sloppy.
jquery icons can also be hacked by locally overriding with your own image, through background:url(). See the jquery docs.
Bytesize Icons https://github.com/danklammer/bytesize-icons is not too bad.
there are others.
