Please log in for more thread options it says here that this is the code:
<LINK rel="shortcut icon" href="img.gif" type="image/x-icon">
but it's not working for me..
on this page itself, this code they say is what to do to display favicon
is not there.. ????????? :(
I see there are sites (http://www.favicon.co.uk/) that will "generate"
favicons for you.. what does this mean?? Shouldn't I just be able to
create my own img and put in code that will display img? thanks.. Frances

The extension for an "favicon" (icon file) must be .ico in order to work
as an icon file in the address bar, the computers desktop or whereever
you want to have it.
<LINK rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
You can use any image file to make an .ico file from it. For that you
need a software, like IrfanView from http://www.irfanview.com that can
resize and save the image as .ico
For "favicon" on addressbar I suggest that the size should be 16x16
pixels, and 32x32 for desktop icons.
