  <h2 id="glyphicons-how-to-use">How to use</h2>
  <p>For performance reasons, all icons require a base class and individual icon class. To use, place the following code just about anywhere. Be sure to leave a space between the icon and text for proper padding.</p>
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-danger">
    <h4>Don't mix with other components</h4>
    <p>Icon classes cannot be directly combined with other components. They should not be used along with other classes on the same element. Instead, add a nested <code>&lt;span&gt;</code> and apply the icon classes to the <code>&lt;span&gt;</code>.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-danger">
    <h4>Only for use on empty elements</h4>
    <p>Icon classes should only be used on elements that contain no text content and have no child elements.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-info">
    <h4>Changing the icon font location</h4>
    <p>By default, Bootstrap assumes that the icon font files will be located in the <code>../fonts/</code> directory relative to your deployed CSS. For example, if your CSS file is at <code>http://example.com/foobar/css/bootstrap.css</code>, then your font files should be at <code>http://example.com/foobar/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff</code>, etc.</p>
    <p>If you are placing the icon font files elsewhere or changing their filenames, you will need to adjust the <code>@icon-font-path</code> and/or <code>@icon-font-name</code> Less variables accordingly.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="bs-callout bs-callout-info">
    <h4><code>@import</code>ing Bootstrap via Less may require adjusting the icon font location</h4>
    <p>If you <code>@import</code> Bootstrap's Less source into your own Less file, you may need to adjust the <code>@icon-font-path</code> Less variable due to the way that the relative paths in our <code>url(...)</code>s work.</p>
