Just downloaded IE 7 and noticed some addresses in the address bar (like www.texasbowhunter.com) have a small logo to the left of the address. Why? What do I do to make that happen on my sites?

there is some special code that is added to the website that allows this logo to be downloaded. It should also appear when you save the sight in your favorites. IE6 had some issues with this but 7 seamed to have addressed it a bit better.
This i9s the code which is placed in the header section of the webpage code.
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF= "LINK TO ICON"><STYLE TYPE="text/css">
The logo should be set to 16 x 16 pixelsLast edited by Shadow; 11-30-2006, 01:13 PM. -

Scott, go here. It's easy to add a favicon to your site.

I just don't get it. I did everything as instructed, checked the favicon validator and got this:
############
Enter the URL of the page you want to check:
Web page address :
http://www.deertexas.com/index.html was checked, and found to have a valid favicon and a link tag.
Details:
Found the web page at:
http://www.deertexas.com/index.html (10.49 KB)
Found <link rel="shortcut icon" ...> tag that specify a favicon:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.deertexas.com/images/favicon.gif">
Found favicon at:

Scott I see your site is generated using Front Page. I didn't see the necessary code inserted. I use Front Page as well. What I did was copy the code from the Favicon site and inserted it into the code of my page in Front Page. I also save the icon in Front Page and then moved them to the server. Hope this makes sense.Comment

Scott, when I added one to my company's website, I couldn't see my own either. I still can't see mine from my work computer, but I can from my home computer. It has something to do with your computer's cache or something. I can't see yours either, probably because I've been to your website before. But I'm pretty sure someone seeing your website for the first time should be able to see it. I know that's not much help, but what I'm saying is that, just because you can't see it, doesn't necessarily mean others can't.Comment

If you have a favorite saved then you need to delete it and resave it once the code has been added to the site and it will then show up.Originally posted by DeerTexas View Post
For a "gif" you will need to add this line.
