I cannot get the :before pseudo class to insert an icon font before a div containing H1 tags. All the examples I see online use a p or i to insert, however I want to use H1 tags because each tag will have a separate ID and class that correspond to some animate.css fade and delay effect.
For simplicity sake I have replaced the font icon with a hash symbol in the example below. The idea is the icon-font will appear before the div, not each h1 tag (this I can do) - in other words; four lines of text and one icon font. My feeling is this something to do with the display property or nested/ child, but at a complete loss how to fix. Any help much appreciated.
