Menu
Trouble is that I can't set value (color) in fill property in Chrome, but in Firefox it works. I tried a lot ways to do it, but there is no result. The only way I see to change color of SVG icon is via jQuery (or JavaScript) by changing id of <symbol>, which is below. Please help me solve this problem!
This is what I need to work in Chrome:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Document</title>
<style>
span:hover .pathCrossBtn{
fill: blue;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<svg width="0" height="0" style='display: none;' xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<symbol viewBox="0 0 2048 2048" id="crossBtn">
<path class="pathCrossBtn" fill="red" d="M1618 1450q0 40-28 68l-136 136q-28 28-68 28t-68-28l-294-294-294 294q-28 28-68 28t-68-28l-136-136q-28-28-28-68t28-68l294-294-294-294q-28-28-28-68t28-68l136-136q28-28 68-28t68 28l294 294 294-294q28-28 68-28t68 28l136 136q28 28 28 68t-28 68l-294 294 294 294q28 28 28 68z"/>
</symbol>
</svg>
<span>
<svg class="crossBtn" viewBox="0 0 2048 2048" width="30" height="30">
<use xlink:href="#crossBtn"></use>
</svg>
</span>
</body>
</html>
This is bad way to solve my problem which is not approriate for me.

Use currentcolor in the path fill attribute of the <symbol> element.
The currentcolor keyword represents the value of an element's color property. This lets you use the color value on properties that do not receive it by default.
Then, add a color CSS property to the class of the <svg> container that will wrap the <symbol> instantiated by the <use> element.
.icon {
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
}
.icon--blue {
color: blue;
}
.icon--red {
color: red;
}<svg width="0" height="0" style="display: none;" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<symbol viewBox="0 0 2048 2048" id="crossBtn">
<path class="pathCrossBtn" fill="currentcolor" d="M1618 1450q0 40-28 68l-136 136q-28 28-68 28t-68-28l-294-294-294 294q-28 28-68 28t-68-28l-136-136q-28-28-28-68t28-68l294-294-294-294q-28-28-28-68t28-68l136-136q28-28 68-28t68 28l294 294 294-294q28-28 68-28t68 28l136 136q28 28 28 68t-28 68l-294 294 294 294q28 28 28 68z"
