Shadyone Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Hi all, Just trying to put one of those little pic's in the address bar before the http://xxxx like the three coloured circles in the oscommerce forums. From what I understand the HTML code for it is something like <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" > but I tried putting it in the index.php file but found out real quick that that is not the place to do it. Anyone got any ideas? Cheers Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadyone Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Thanks DI, I tried there and ended up with a blank screen. I'll try a few more times and just move the position of the code up a bit a nd see what happens. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonabc Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I use one of these for my site. Insert this into your <head> section: <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="/favicon.ico"> Bear in mind if you only insert it in index.php it will only display on that page.
