    Hello guys, thanks for the last reply to my post, got my answer within two hours of posting it! But yea anyways, my question is how to make a little icon that will appear next to the adress url, like when a person visits your page there is a little icon. Like if you visit google, there is a little G or when you visit yahoo, there is a Y! icon. Or when you have tabs open there is a icon next to the window title. Can someone hlp me out please?

    thank you guys :)
    much appreciated

    make sure you have a .ico file let say favicon.ico. Then put this in your html file <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
