Follow-up to "SVG `use` with External Source"

[tinkering]

Hello
I’m stuck at this:
I’d really love to use this nifty method (as described in

SVG symbol a Good Choice for Icons for displaying some icons.

Problem is, most of them are embedded in the css, like, the menu-icon is a background-image etc.
Could somebody point me the direction to go (if it’s possible at all anyway)?

thanks a lot!

thanks, Atelierbram

do I understand this right, I’d use it like

#site-nav-container a#mobile-menu-btn {
     background: url('http://davidbraun.ch/img/icons/icons.svg#menuicon') 0 0 no-repeat;
}

and, just as my first-steps indicate, there’s an issue arising with the browser-caching: this new file I made doesn’t seem to get cached, although the line

ExpiresByType image/svg+xml A29030400
is present in the htaccess …
?

again, thanks a lot!
