Default Re: How to make a Favicon.ico and display it the browser address bar

EDIT... SEE MY POST BELOW THIS ONE

Yes mate..The answer is that IE is a load of Junk LOL. It really is not good with Favicons although. If you added the line of code to the HEAD of your index page (from my original post). It might perform a bit better.

Also, another sly little tip that sometimes works in IE....

Try dragging the little square white page icon out of the address bar and onto the web page itself. Doing this repeatedly will sometimes force the favicon to display.

Occcasionally it might just take a day or two for the browser and server to conect in a way that we like and you may find it will appear automatically.

If you have followed all the steps in the orignal post, try adding the index page to your fravourites/bookmarks and see if the favicon appears there Chris.

Hope it works out but I guarantee you will have more success in other browsers.
