Favicon is not shwing...why ?

hi

why the favicon of my blog not showing up...can anyone help ?

it was showing earlier ...

 

Verify that your favicon still exists?

You may have edited something which has changed the favicon, but I think they cache and don't change for a long while in most browsers.

 

Assuming you mean mybloglog.com/buzz/community/tech43/, I'm seeing a favicon in all browsers but IE6. That's because IE is crappy this way; the only way you can hope it will show in IE6 is if you bookmark the site first.

 

i haven't changed nothing....that's why i got confused

its not showing on any browser i have.....

but as u said u can see it.it could be a prb at my end then

 

did you add both possible fav icon comands?

 

yeah..i have

but tell me which ones...just for a check

 

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/favicon.png" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="icon" href="/images/favicon.png" type="image/x-icon">

Code (markup):

I was talking about these ones

 

maybe you need to clear your browser cache

 

are you talking about tech43.net?
I see the blogger.com favicon

 

Your favicon has to be in the .ico format.

 

oh...i think that's the problem.i was using png earlier !! but i was working...ok now let me check

 

Sometimes browsers fucks up the favicons.. I can sometimes see the google favicon while browsing DP etc.

 

aww man.....my problem is still on...i have tried the ico format but nothing happened...help help help

 

On tech43.net, the icon file is still a png.

<link href='http://callmeminty.googlepages.com/fa22.png' rel='icon'/>
<link href='http://callmeminty.googlepages.com/fa22.png' rel='shortcut icon'/>

HTML:

 

I see your favicon. It's the one with the M right?

 

I'm also getting the "M" favicon here. I take it you've resolved the issue then? What was causing the problem?

 

Yeah, it's supposed to be this one, right?:


It's showing just fine on everything but IE6 (reasons explained below) for me.

 

Make sure your favicon is in your public_html folder, and make sure it's called favicion.ico. Try cleaning out your cache and viewing it again.

 

typo in joejennings post; make sure you dont put favicion.ico, but favicon.ico

 

I'm using firefox3 and I got this one in my browser:


The URL of the .ico is:

http://www.tech43.net/favicon.ico

I think this may be a cause, although other causes may still take place.

Meanwhile, nothing happens in IE7
