HTML Code for Musical Notes

Posted in A Day in the Life, Music Blogosphere | 62 Comments »

Aren’t there times when you want to burst into song while you’re typing along in Twitter? Well, here’s the html code so you can sing along:

[Note: Use the characters within the quotation marks, and remove the spaces in between the characters]

“& # 9 8 3 3 ;” produces ♩ (quarter note)
“& # 9 8 3 4 ;” produces ♪ (eighth note)
“& # 9 8 3 5 ;” produces ♫ (beamed pair of eighth notes)
“& # 9 8 3 6 ;” produces ♬ (beamed pair of sixteenth notes)
“& # 9 8 3 7 ;” produces ♭ (flat accidental)
“& # 9 8 3 8 ;” produces ♮ (natural accidental)
“& # 9 8 3 9 ;” produces ♯ (sharp accidental)

Says Uncle Fredo at Grapefeed.com, “This code may show up as boxes or question marks on some browsers, but they appeared fine for me in current versions of Internet Explorer (Windows only), Firefox (Windows & Mac), Safari (Windows & Mac), Opera (Windows & Mac), and Camino (Mac only)”.

    What about Treble clef and bass clef?

  21. Carla Says:

    Hi Dyann, that’s a good question! I have no idea how to create treble and bass clefs in html, but if anyone reading this knows how, please comment below, and I’ll add it to the post.

    Thanks!

    For the record, this post on using html to create musical notes is the most commented post on RockStarLifeLessons.com. I’m flattered, but totally bewildered at its popularity.

    How are you note makers finding this site anyway? Keep coming back, okay?!

    Happy melody making!

    It’s lame that there’s no treble clef html code!

  43. Carla Says:

    I agree, Natalie. I currently don’t know the html code for treble clef, but I’ll look around, see what I can find, and add it to the blog.
