IE7,8 Display issue

[tvachon]

IE 7,8 (I know, I know) fail to display icon fonts properly. (Note: this issue is masked if you test in the compatibility modes of newer versions of IE. To see it, you need to be running an actual version of IE6-8. VM's work fine though.)

This can be fixed with a simple change to the @font-face declaration in font-awesome.min.css as detailed here: http://www.fontspring.com/blog/further-hardening-of-the-bulletproof-syntax

e.g.:

@font-face{
font-family:'FontAwesome';
src:url('/yourPath/font_awesome/font/fontawesome-webfont.eot');/* IE9 Compat Modes /
src:url('/yourPath/font_awesome/font/fontawesome-webfont.eot#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), / IE6-IE8 /
url('/yourPath/font_awesome/font/fontawesome-webfont.woff') format('woff'),/ Modern Browsers /
url('/yourPath/font_awesome/font/fontawesome-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),/ Safari, Android, iOS /
url('/yourPath/font_awesome/font/fontawesome-webfont.svg') format('svg'); / Legacy iOS */
font-weight:normal;
font-style:normal }
