Mornin all,
Does anyone know how to have the logo of the website you are surfing appear in the address bar???...here is an example....www.torrentreactor.net

I notice it also appears on the new "tabbed Row" for explorer 7!

Hi, Kev!

Check out this post:

OK, i've found a site that creates favicon images....now i need a little help pasting it to my page!!!!

after downloading my favicon i had this message...

To add this favicon to your web page:

Click "Download FavIcon" and open the package. favicon.ico is included in it.
Upload the favicon.ico file to the folder on your web site where you have the web page.
Add the following HTML tag to your web page after the <head> tag, before the </head> tag:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" >
That's it! To test your new favicon in Internet Explorer, add your site to Favorites and reopen the page. To test it in Firefox or other Mozilla-based browser, simply open your web page and watch the address bar or the page tab. More information is available on the help page and the Favicon Validator page.

what does all this mean????

idiot proof instructions would be perfect,

Thanks,

kev
