Does this Bookmark script look correct? It seems to work fine when I click the link to bookmark my site (http://lazyape.filetap.com), except the favicon doesn't seem to work. If I add the site to favorites the normal way, then the favicon always works.

Any ideas?

<html>
<head>

<script type="text/javascript">
function bookmark()
{
window.external.AddFavorite("http://lazyape.filetap.com","APE's Place")
}
</script>

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.angeltowns.com/members/monkape/favicon.ico">

</head>
<body>

<a href="javascript:bookmark()" onmouseover=" window.status='Add :: APE s Place :: to favourites!'; return true" onmouseout=" window.status=''; return true">Bookmark This Site</a>

</body>
</html>

Thanks.

You must be using IE. IE's support for favicon's is finicky at best (which is surprising, as it is the only browser that I know of that spams the server by requesting it for every page it loads, whether or not it runs across the code telling it to look)...

Sorry, I can't offer you any advice, but I'd just like to say that your site looks great! Nice layout ;)
