Hi Guys,
I need your help to write the code for my website address Icon. When people open my
site and drag that Icon (located before the URL) to their desktop it surely help them
for easily recognized my Icon to my site.

See Sample: http://www.dpreview.com/

<html>
<head>
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/favicon.ico">
<SCRIPT SRC="/inc/dprmain.js" LANGUAGE="Javascript"></SCRIPT>
</head>

I already create my Icon of 32 by 32 about 766 bytes size.

Thank You!
--Rino

If you want your icon to show on the browser links/bookmarks toolbar the
only code you need is

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">

It works fine as is. I saved to favorites and it displayed and I dragged to
desktop and it displayed (with *a lot* of descriptive text, by the way). IE
(by design) doesn't show it in the address bar, if that's what you're
concerned about.

How you did it? These how I did; Please check my error.
1. Insert only this line: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"
type="image/x-icon">
at the beginning but just after <html> tags. My comment: failed
2. Add <head> tag and end with </head> tag to above line. My comments: failed
3. I uploaded my Icon and get it link then replaced it inside the "favicon.ico". My
comment: Failed
4. What to replace "image/x-icon" ? To make it work?

Please help me again - Thanks!

In the head section of your home page just add
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
and make sure you have a .ico file named favicon.ico in the root of your web

Thank you Stefan!
I got it right this time. All along my code is fine except to omit the 4th lines. We
can also use our own creation Icons in place of http://www.favicon.co.uk/ just
replaced the file name in code. The instruction given by 'favicon.co.uk' is incomplete.

Anybody can try it if interested. You got the link above for crating your FREE Browser
& Favorites Icon. Followed the instruction given by Stefan. Try also to uses your own
Icon. Now you understand the mystery behind all my problem.

Just remember to upload all Icons, add the short cut code, dragged the Browser Icon to
your desktop and saved it also to your Favorites folder.

Google for FREE ICON - more faster and beautiful. People will now easily find your
websites on their desktop.

Best Regards & All The Best!
