title: Safari mobile does not respect CSS color attribute for HTML entity &#10006;
body: <p>Bit of a confusing one, the color attribute is respected on the desktop version of Safari but not on mobile.</p>
  
  <p>I tested it on an iPhone 5 (iOS version 9.2.1).</p>
  
  <p>Sample code (first span will appear black on safari mobile):</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;html&gt;
     &lt;head&gt;
        &lt;style&gt;
           span { color: white; }
        &lt;/style&gt;
     &lt;/head&gt;
     &lt;body&gt;
        &lt;span&gt;&amp;#10006;&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span&gt;&amp;times;&lt;/span&gt;
        &lt;span&gt;×&lt;/span&gt;
     &lt;/body&gt;
   &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>

  <p>Adding !important didn't do anything. Any ideas what might be causing this?</p>
