Add Icon between each Div

Question 1

Michaelmcgurk’s Question:

I have a very simple page on my site: http://jsfiddle.net/95sptas0/

Using only CSS, how do I add an icon between each .post div? I’d like one after each .post div except the last. I’m hoping to use this icon: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icon/arrow-down/

.post {
    margin-bottom:50px;
    background:#eaeaea
}

<div class="post">
    <h1>This is a Post</h1>
</div>

<div class="post">
    <h1>This is a Post</h1>
</div>

<div class="post">
    <h1>This is a Post</h1>
</div>

After including the “FontAwesome” font, the following CSS might do it:

.post::after { 
    content: "f063";
    font-family:'FontAwesome';
}

f063 is the code for the “down arrow” using the FontAwesome font.

In order for you to apply this to every element except your last, you can use the last-of-type selector:

.post:last-of-type::after { 
    display: none;
}

The font awesome icons requires to have an element with defined class. In you case this is <i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i>. Since this is a new element you cannot use CSS to handle DOM manipulation.

If you can opt for text based unicode icons and font-based icons however, it will be possible through adjacent selector.

.post+.post::before {
    content: "↓";
}

Does somebody have an easy to use example of a country drop-down, with country flags, for Select2? I am about to implement one based on this suggestion, but I would prefer to avoid reinventing the wheel.

I was working on a similar problem and here is how I solve it.

(function($) {
    $(function() {
        var isoCountries = [
            { id: 'AF', text: 'Afghanistan'},
            ...
        ];
        //Assuming you have a select element with name country
        // e.g. <select name="name"></select>

        $("[name='country']").select2({
            placeholder: "Select a country",
            data: isoCountries
        });
    });
})(jQuery);

I also have made a gist about it and following are the demos.
