Guest Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 I am trying to add a favicon to my site. It requires me to add this html code within the <head></head> tags: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" > <link rel="icon" href="animated_favicon1.gif" type="image/gif" > Does anyone know where I can add this code. I tried header.php. It has to be a file that is used by every page on the site.
germ Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Put it in the <head> section of your /catalog/index.php Example: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us"> <title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" /> It doesn't need to be in "a file that is used by every page on the site." If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

I did all that and still nothing. I checked that the favicon.ico is there on the server at that path and that seems to be fine.
Guest Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Solved! Thanks for the help. I had set an include in header.php to include a file I created named header.html to define meta tags and keywords in the header. The script was reading this file first which also has <head></head> tags in it. I removed the include and works great. Thanks!
