    Hi,
    When i open these forums in ie7 and FF i see the icon in the windows address bar?
    I have looked at the source code of the page but i can not find out how they have done this???

    I have tried it on my site but i can get it to work.

    Anyone fancy looking at the source code and working it out for me.

    thanks

    you need a favicon.ico file as the image and place it in your root directory. (16x16 pixels).

    Or in your <head> tags put:

    
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" />
    
    Code (markup):
    with that code, you can use the href to reference the file if its in a different folder, and use other file types like gif :)
