Anders Moen Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 The first one's almost right!Use this instead:<link rel="shortcut icon" href="frontstuff/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">(bold text on the thing you forgot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian_C Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 Hmm, i did post that one : also had this one :<link rel="shortcut icon" href="frontstuff/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">so must be another problem, but well ill try again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anders Moen Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Here's the code I always use, and that works perfect for me: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"> And by the way; do you use Internet Explorer to check? It doesn't work in IE6 and older. I don't know in IE7 because I don't have it and I'm not gonna get it. But in Opera and Mozilla it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anders Moen Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Maybe IE blocks for some sites...and in this case, it blocked yours :)I have no idea, I haven't used IE in a while now, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhaslip Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Try clearing your cache and then go back to the site. Might work then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian_C Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 Where do i clear that? Not so good with pc stuff hehe...->Kristian_C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henryhenry Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Where do i clear that? Not so good with pc stuff hehe...->Kristian_C.You really should try using firefox or opera - it's like saying no to a free porsche when you're currently driving a second hand beaten up ford (IE). That way you could test the website in a clear cache. www.opera.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian_C Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 Actually, i hate opera and firefox. Never liked them,they are the beaten up fords for me.IE has allways been the best becouse it works on every thing i use it for and if IE cant show the favicon well i dont give a damn.i recomend IE for all visitors on my site, every thing looks so ugly in opera/firefox..->Kristian_C Proud IE user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhaslip Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 You will need to ask someone else about clearing the cache on your iE Browser. I don't have it installed. iMac spoken here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
