favicon

Put something like this between the <head> tags using your own path to the image being used as a favicon:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="imgs/favicon.gif">

You can use this online favicon maker or Google for others: Favicon Maker (http://www.degraeve.com/favicon/)

Here's another at Dynamic Drive: Favicon Maker 2 (http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/)

This one allows use of scrolling text. Probably best one: Favicon Maker 3 (http://www.html-kit.com/favicon/)

I use an animated GIF image for my favicon.

What about IE6+?

IE 6 should be fine with the second code example provided. IE 7 will need a full path defined or the favicon will need to be in the root directory on your server.
