Linkrel Icon for Firefox & IE7

tbrenner · 09-21-2005, 07:00 PM

Ello,

I've seen the sites that have the little icon (like the GC icon by http://www.googlecommunity.com) and I can't seem to find the meta tag that lets you do it...anyone have any ideas of where it may be lurking?

I use FFox 1.0.6.....
The GC Icon sometimes appear, sometimes don't...
Yeah i look into the source, theres no script like this.

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

well, i dont know. its IPB.
May be it has been include in other php script.

It's phpBB, and no, you don't really need to put it in meta-tags on individual web-pages. Just put the "favicon.ico" file in the root directory of your website and the browser will automatically trace it.
And yes, it MUST be named 'favicon.ico'...
