FAVICON
I can't get the Favorite Icon (favicon) to work on my website

www.barcelona.la

Can anyone help, or is this due to the free host??


Thanks

Might help if you had the html code for favicon in the header

<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.mydomain.com/myicon.ico">

This is actually quite cool. Are all browsers compatible with it?

Um... foodbiz...

You still haven't put the line of code in the index page as far as I can tell.

You need to put this line in your HEAD section of you HTML document.

Code:
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.barcelona.la/favicon.ico">
You can see a working example HERE.

Here's where I have the code:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://lan-porters.homeip.net/forum/favicon.ico">
HTH,

David
