Font-Awesome How to get fonts to scale?

css, font-awesome

Solution

Take a look at this page and see the examples that scale icons size.

You can scale up to 5 times it's size.

Example:

<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-lg"></i> fa-lg
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-2x"></i> fa-2x
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-3x"></i> fa-3x
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-4x"></i> fa-4x
<i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-5x"></i> fa-5x

Problem

I'm trying desperately to get my magnifying glass font to render it larger. The code below works fine in firefox but not in Chrome or IE9. What am I missing? ``` .icon-larger { font-size:50px; } <div class="search-icon"><i class="icon-search icon-larger"></i></div> ``` thanks!
