[Solved] Add font-awesome icon to option in select [duplicate]

by


Since font-awesome icons are fonts, they can be added to options by Unicode:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/angular/angular.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css">
  <body ng-app>
    <i class="fa fa-camera-retro"></i> fa-camera-retro<br>
    <select ng-model="choice" class="fa">
      <option value="">Choose</option>
      <option value="&#xf030; camera">&#xf030; camera</option>
      <option value="&#xf0f3; bell">&#xf0f3; bell</option>
      <option value="&#xf206; bicycle">&#xf206; bicycle</option>
    </select>
    <br>
    Choice = <span class="fa">{{choice}}</span>
    <br><span class="fa">&#xf030;-&#xf0f3;-&#xf206;</span>
  </body>
