favicon

[TheIrishThug]

i've gotten this to work for the favorite's link. however, i've seen pages that have icons that replace the IE icon the appears in the top left corner of the window and in the address line. does anyone know how i would go about doing that?

<link href="favicon.ico" rel="shortcut icon">

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/ico" href="favicon.ico" />

Take off the / at the end if you're not using XHTML.

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/ico" href="favicon.ico" />


Just to let you know this is not required. I cannot even find it being recommended. But the one thing I do know is that you can use png, bmp, gif, etc... and add the relating mime-type so if you used a png it would be
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="favicon.png" />
