Icon in option - Bootstrap + Font-awsome

I am trying to embed an icon in an option from a select list. Using font-awesome icons, no icon is being displayed.

我试图从选择列表中的选项中嵌入一个图标。使用font-awesome图标，不显示任何图标。

<select>
    <option><i class="icon-camera-retro"></i> Doesn't work in option!</option>
</select>

Can i use font-awesome to achieve what i need? Or do i have to scrap using font-awesome and do a manual CSS background for each option?

我可以使用font-awesome来实现我所需要的吗？或者我是否必须使用font-awesome废弃并为每个选项执行手动CSS背景？

You can use FontAwesome as a unicode font and insert your icons in a cross-platform way. You just need to look up the unicode value for each icon

您可以将FontAwesome用作unicode字体，并以跨平台方式插入图标。您只需要查找每个图标的unicode值

<select style="font-family: 'FontAwesome', Helvetica;">
    <option>&#xf083; Now I show the pretty camera!</option>
</select>

#2

You can cheat a little bit and put the class on the option:

你可以欺骗一点，把课程放在选项上：

<option class="icon-camera-retro"> Doesn't work in option!</option>

Apparently Select2 (https://ivaynberg.github.io/select2/) is a solution to putting icons in option tags. However, perhaps due to my lack of knowledge, I just couldn't make it work. In the end I resorted to using lists (I was also using Bootstrap)

显然，Select2（https://ivaynberg.github.io/select2/）是将图标放入选项标签的解决方案。然而，也许是由于我缺乏知识，我无法使其发挥作用。最后我使用了列表（我也使用了Bootstrap）

<a class="btn dropdown-toggle category" data-toggle="dropdown" href="/go.html?url=#">All Categories <span class="caret pull-right"></span></a>
<ul id="category" class="dropdown-menu">
    <li><a href="/go.html?url=#"><i class="icon"></i> Category A</a></li>
    <li><a href="/go.html?url=#"><i class="icon"></i> Category B</a></li>
    ..
</ul>

There is a drawback though, the id of the list has to be unique. So, if like me you had 5 different lists in one page, you have to declare (?) all of them in javascript making the codes chunky.

但是有一个缺点，列表的id必须是唯一的。所以，如果像我一样，你在一个页面中有5个不同的列表，你必须在javascript中声明（？）所有这些列表使代码变得粗糙。

$(function(){
  $("#category li a").click(function(){
    $(".category").val($(this).text());
  });
});

Hope that help shed some light.

希望有所帮助。

Use a plugin like select2

使用像select2这样的插件

Here's a working jsfiddle

这是一个有效的jsfiddle

<select id="icon_select" style="width: 150px;"><option value="fa-glass">&amp;#xf000; fa-glass</option>
  <option value="fa-music">&amp;#xf001; fa-music</option>
