Question Regarding Web Adress Graphic How to add a Web Adress Graphic

You know on some websites (well alot these days), have little custom graphics next to the WebAdress bar?. . .Not sure if it shows up ina ll browsers, but it defintly works in Opera as thats what im using at the moment.Xisto has one of these for example.Any help on how to change this/ add it would be very helpful.Thankx in advance

If you know how the icons work on cd's.... its basically the same thing.All you do is find or make and icon(they are .ico) and upload it to your home directory of your site, in the www or public_html folder and name it "favicon.ico"(without the quotes)and thats it.... B)have fun and enjoyxJedix

I do belive there is a tutorial abut them here in the forums. Perform a search using the phrase "favicon" to find them.

I tried that once, it didn't work.Maybe I did something wrong.What size does it have to be btw?(The favicon)

I would have searched prior to makign the topic but had no idea what they were called Thankx for the help, i'll try it out when i get access to my ftp again.does anyone havr the link to the tutorial?

Thanks, I have been looking and wondering on how this is done for a while, when I'm done with my site I will certainly make one.

It´s not difficult at all. I have one on my site and it´s really easy (even more if you follow that tutorial).

You can also find webs that allow you to make a favicon out of an image without using any program (although you cannot optimizate too much),. For example http://www.chami.com/html-kit/services/favicon/

16x16 px16 colorsfavicon.icoplace in website root folderdoes not always display in all versions IE but you canput the file name at the end of your URL and see it inyour browser window to make sure it is on your server(or test using a mozilla based browser)
