I'm using a custom switch
toggle (from here) and I want to add an icon instead of regular text. When I paste the Ionicons
code to the CSS content
property it appears as a rectangle (some indication for the fact the character\font was not found). How do I get pass this?
EDIT: I forgot to add, I have included the CSS from CDN.
Switch CSS:
.onoffswitch {
position: relative;
width: 108px;
-webkit-user-select:none;
-moz-user-select:none;
-ms-user-select: none;
}
.onoffswitch-checkbox {
display: none;
}
.onoffswitch-label {
display: block;
overflow: hidden;
cursor: pointer;
border: 2px solid #999999;
border-radius: 30px;
}
.onoffswitch-inner {
display: block;
width: 200%;
margin-left: -100%;
-moz-transition: margin 0.3s ease-in 0s;
-webkit-transition: margin 0.3s ease-in 0s;
-o-transition: margin 0.3s ease-in 0s;
transition: margin 0.3s ease-in 0s;
}
.onoffswitch-inner:before, .onoffswitch-inner:after {
display: block;
float: left; width: 50%;
height: 40px; padding: 0;
line-height: 38px;
font-size: 14px;
color: white;
font-weight: bold;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.onoffswitch-inner:before {
content: "ON";
padding-left: 10px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
color: #BABABA;
}
.onoffswitch-inner:after {
content: "\f425"; /* <--------THE ICON GOES HERE */
padding-right: 10px;
background-color: #8035A7;
color: #FFFFFF;
text-align: right;
}
.onoffswitch-switch {
display: block;
width: 41px; margin: -1.5px;
background: #FFFFFF;
border: 2px solid #999999;
border-radius: 50px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 66px;
-moz-transition: all 0.3s ease-in 0s;
-webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-in 0s;
-o-transition: all 0.3s ease-in 0s;
transition: all 0.3s ease-in 0s;
}
.onoffswitch-checkbox:checked + .onoffswitch-label .onoffswitch-inner {
margin-left: 0;
}
.onoffswitch-checkbox:checked + .onoffswitch-label .onoffswitch-switch {
right: 0px;
}
HTML:
<div class="onoffswitch">
<input type="checkbox" name="onoffswitch" class="onoffswitch-checkbox" id="myonoffswitch" checked>
<label class="onoffswitch-label" for="myonoffswitch">
<p id="impressions_meter_text">Impressions meter</p>
<span class="onoffswitch-inner"></span>
<span class="onoffswitch-switch"></span>
</label>
</div>
You're missing a @font-face
declaration that imports the "Ionicons" font face, plus the .onoffswitch-inner:after
declaration doesn't specify the font-family: "Ionicons";
.
I've extracted the Ionicons font declaration from their css and added it to a forked jsFiddle.
