Sorry, I know I asked back in.... November 2021.

I sort of got an answer, but after my efforts, I am still confused.

I have a node (on a machine) and it has this for the code:

```auto
<div id="GButtonM_DCT">
    <md-button class="md-button program-names darkred">
        <i class="material-icons">
            <span> meeting_room</span>
            <md-tooltip>Door Control</md-tooltip>
        </i>
    </md-button>
</div>

<script>

(function($scope) {

$('#GButtonM_DCT').on('click', function(e) {
    e.preventDefault(); //prevent default behavior
    $scope.send({"topic":"momentary_regular","payload": "Door control"});
});
    
})(scope);
</script>

```

Looking at the link supplied, it seems a whole different _flavour_ of icons.  
I can see I have to install this new batch to get them.

But the one I just posted works.

I am wanting to find where those icons are with that name set.  
Those are `md-(name)`.  
The new ones are `mdi-(name)`.

Same but different.

Someone - please?

Sorry..

Today I am wanting to look for an icon but can't for the life of me find the site with the material design icons which I remember. I get that they evolve - or what ever you want to call it. But I can't find a site which shows me the icons like it used to be. I've seen this is a bit of a hot topic, but the links I see on the threads, but I still don't see a page with what I used to see earlier on.

Looks like the `mdi` come from the link you show while the `md` ones are from google fonts

Thanks.

I'm up to my neck in other things just now.

I found the link from that page to where I can see them all.  
I'll have to come back to it and make sure it works for me for getting the names.

Appreciated.
