How to add favicon through css file?

Is there a way to add favicon through CSS?

 

I don't think so, you will have to do with head tags.

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

 

I doubt you could do that through CSS.

 

That would mean editing a large number of html files, oh well.

 

For future reference use php to include the header information (including the favicon) that stays consistent on each page so that you only have to edit one file instead of a large number.

 

for now you can use a php script that will open each html file and for each one it can add the favicon. Pretty simple. better yet you can upgrade the website to use a cms.

Or you could use something even easier like Search and Replace. You can basically search for a string of characters, and replace them with whatever you want. I use it all of the time to edit about 5000 html files.

 

Thanks ChaosFoo, I will try that out.

 

you can only add favicons through head tags...
