 |
|
ok i am trying to get a favicon working on my site here is what my head part looks like:
| Code: |
<html>
<head>
<title>Select which server</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/server stuff/images/images188/red.css">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://68.55.75.14/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="icon" href="http://68.55.75.14/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
</head>
|
The path to the icon works (http://68.55.75.14/favicon.ico) but it still dosent show up.
Any ideas?

Favicons are done by the browser, not the server. So your HTML must be wrong.
Try just putting in a relative path for your favicon.

What browser are you using?
I don't know if the answer will help, but it might do!

hc2995,
Have you cleared your cache and history? Also, if you bookmarked your site
before you added the favicon you may need to delete the bookmark as well. |

hc2995,
Try with another browser. IE7 is too new so there is a great chance to have it still contain bugs.
BYW, the old IE behavior (probably until IE6) was to not download the favicon until you bookmark the page.
