Glyph Icons don't appear

Hi all,
I've been trying to get glyph icons to appear with some of my PHPlugins files.

Standard tagging this doesn't appear to work.
I thought perhaps that since a "new window" icon appears in a Backlight menu set as needed, that they could also be be called out in other html syntaxes, such as:
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-new-window"></span>

Please let me know what you think.
Thanks for your consideration,
Don

Re: Glyph Icons don't appear

Can you post a link?
How are you implementing the icons? Can you post the code you're using?

Re: Glyph Icons don't appear

You're including a glyph icon library then? If you're only adding undefined classes, that won't do anything.

Re: Glyph Icons don't appear

Hi Rod [and Matt],

Sorry for the delayed reply as the holiday week got the best of me.
Here is a link to the homepage.
http://quatrainfotographic.com/

I'm used <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-new-window"></span> immediately after the "Thinking Outloud" <h2> tag. In a standard html document I can use this code to generate the new-window glyph since those are elements nested within Bootstrap.

Thanks,
Don

Re: Glyph Icons don't appear

Backlight doesn't use Bootstrap, so the glyphicon library is not included. We use Font Awesome, the icon reference for which is here:
