Font Awesome icon not showing on IE7

font-awesome, internet-explorer-7, mime-types

Solution

The configuration was correct after all. For some reason font-awesome-ie7.css wasn't loading correctly. After making sure that this file was loading, everything worked.

Problem

Font Awesome icons are not showing on IE7. They do on IE8, IE9, FF and Chrome. Example HTML: ``` <span rel="tooltip" data-placement="top" data-original-title="Click to add question to favorites"> <i class="icon-star-empty"></i> </span> ``` Files included: ``` <link href="/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="/css/font-awesome.css" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="/css/font-awesome-ie7.css"> ``` Request to .woff: ``` Request: URL:http://example.com/font/fontawesome-webfont.woff Response: Accept-Ranges:bytes Connection:Keep-Alive Content-Length:41752 Content-Type:application/octet-stream Date:Tue, 11 Dec 2012 11:31:51 GMT ETag:"4095e-a318-4cf1d75fb20dd" Keep-Alive:timeout=5, max=98 Last-Modified:Thu, 22 Nov 2012 23:02:27 GMT Server:Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) ``` I've configured this on Apache's /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mime.conf (and restarted Apache): ``` AddType application/octet-stream .woff ``` Am I missing any configuration?
