favicon...

#1

hi. iv made my site using templates and html pages made from those templates.

I have made my favicon.

favicon.ico

I have placed it in the root of my website.

What html do I enter (into the templates I presume) for the favicon to show??

Thanks.

ok thanks. So am I right in saying (from the articles Ive read) that you only
need to add html code to any template or page if your favicon isnt in the root
of your website? Other wise web browsers will pick it up?

It's more reliable to explicity link to it, even if it's in the root
directory.

Just add this between the <head> and </head> tags:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"
type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon">

I think the type "image/x-icon" would be better and supported by more
browsers.

Although that is the correct mime type:
