I have to change the select icon in <select>
to a fa icon.
The code I use:
<select class="sortBy" name="sortBy" data-url="${url}" data-icon="ui-icon-arrow-sort">
<option value="">Sort By</option>
<option value="new" selected="selected">Newest</option>
<option value="old">Oldest</option>
</select>
The CSS is:
.ui-icon-arrow-sort{
content: "\f0dd";
display: inline-block;
font: normal normal normal 14px/1 FontAwesome;
font-size: inherit;
text-rendering: auto;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}
For now it's not working well.
Since Font-Awesome icons aren't SVG, they can't be used as background-image
as jQM icons. However, you still can override arrow icon in select
, but it requires JS to add custom class to button within select
.
First, add data-icon="false"
to select
to prevent jQM from adding arrow icon. Then, on pagecreate
, add your custom class to select
's button.
.ui-icon-arrow-sort:after {
content:"\f0dd";
font: normal normal normal 20px/1 FontAwesome;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
right: 30px;
line-height: 2em;
}
$(document).on("pagecreate", "#pageID", function () {
$(".sortBy", this).closest(".ui-btn").addClass("ui-icon-arrow-sort");
});
