Why is my #font-face not working? - html

Question

I am confused as to why this code is not working for me. I am trying to add icons to my tags, but when I call the font from my files of my website, they don't seem to be working for anything I try to put them in. I am trying to insert an icon into my .showMenu , but for some reason, it isn't working. I have the font files uploaded to my server, and the url's in the #font-face are the correct ones, but it doesn't want to work. Please help!
HTML:
<div class="column">
<span class="showMenu" id="showMenu"></span>
</div>
CSS:
#font-face {
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
font-family: 'icomoon';
src:url('../fonts/icomoon/icomoon.eot');
src:url('../fonts/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.svg#typicons') format('svg');
}
.showMenu {
font-size: 22px;
padding-left: 10px;
padding-right: 10px;
background: #ed8151;
font-family: 'icomoon';
border: 1px solid #e86a32;
border-radius: 3px;
}
.showMenu:before {
content: "\e6b8"
}

Answer 1

I was putting around, and figured out that each font file needs a full file path, instead of a shortened one.
Here is what it should look like:
CSS:
#font-face {
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
font-family: 'icomoon';
src:url('http://yoursite.com/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.eot');
src:url('http://yoursite.com/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('http://yoursite.com/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('http://yoursite.com/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.woff') format('woff'),
url('http://yoursite.com/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.svg#typicons') format('svg');
}

Answer 2

It looks like your paths are incorrect. Try:
src:url('../fonts/icomoon/icomoon.eot');
src:url('../fonts/icomoon/icomoon.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
url('../fonts/icomoon/icomoon.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('../fonts/icomoon/icomoon.woff') format('woff'),
url('../fonts/icomoon/icomoon.svg#typicons') format('svg');
