IE Icon

Some sites when viewed in IE have a logo in the browser bar to the left of the http://.....................

Does anyone know how that is added?

 

If you upload an icon file called favicon.ico to the directory the page is on, usually it will recognize it and add it there. Alternatively, you could add this meta tag:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.sitename.com/images/favicon.ico" />

Code (markup):

P.S. It isn't just an IE thing. Most browsers do it. As far as I know.

 

Don't forget to design your ico file as a 16 x 16, 16 bit image!

 

IE6 Doesn't support it AFAIK
FF Does
Just put the favicon.ico using FTP and it should Appear on ur site
eg : www.bannedstuff.com or www.allweirdthings.com

 

Wooters!

Thanks for the advice everyone.

Just off to make me an icon.

@8everything, does it have to be 16bit?

 

Yes it does I looked it up....

 

Thanks.
