I am trying to change the default dropdown menu icon in the layer control. I'd like to have text alongside the icon. Is there any way to do this? Perhaps using JQuery and CSS?
I'm working on a leaflet project based on this example: http://leafletjs.com/examples/layers-control.html
Code:
<html>
<head>

<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../dist/leaflet.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="map" style="width: 600px; height: 400px"></div>
<script src="../dist/leaflet.js"></script>
<script>
var cities = new L.LayerGroup();
L.marker([39.61, -105.02]).bindPopup('This is Littleton, CO.').addTo(cities),
L.marker([39.74, -104.99]).bindPopup('This is Denver, CO.').addTo(cities),
L.marker([39.73, -104.8]).bindPopup('This is Aurora, CO.').addTo(cities),
L.marker([39.77, -105.23]).bindPopup('This is Golden, CO.').addTo(cities);
var cmAttr = 'Map data © 2011 OpenStreetMap contributors, Imagery © 2011 Clou dMade',
cmUrl = 'http://{s}.tile.cloudmade.com/BC9A493B41014CAABB98F0471D759707/{styleId}/256/{z}/{x}/{y}.png';
var minimal = L.tileLayer(cmUrl, {styleId: 22677, attribution: cmAttr}),
midnight = L.tileLayer(cmUrl, {styleId: 999, attribution: cmAttr}),
motorways = L.tileLayer(cmUrl, {styleId: 46561, attribution: cmAttr});
var map = L.map('map', {
center: [39.73, -104.99],
zoom: 10,
layers: [minimal, motorways, cities]
});
var baseLayers = {
"Minimal": minimal,
"Night View": midnight
};
var overlays = {
"Motorways": motorways,
"Cities": cities
};
L.control.layers(baseLayers, overlays).addTo(map);
