How do you change the small image showed in a browsers tab when viewing image using HTML? Sorry, I am new to programming.
The small image is what I am talking about.
it's called a favicon:
place the favicon.ico file in the www root and use the following code:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico">
Insert the following line in <head> tag
<link href="Images/tsp1.png" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" />
Replace Images/tsp1.png with an image of your choice, make it somting like a 16x16 image
This is the Favicon. Have a look at the whikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon
Have an image in ico format with name favicon.ico in the root of your site. Search for favicon.ico for more information.

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.example.com/myicon.ico">

plz help me guys I'm creating a website only using html. I want to know how to add a picture into the title which is shown in the browser
Title is used to display the page title as text.
You should use the balise below to display an icon named logo.png for example:
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="logo.png" />
You actually need to add a favicon to a website.
<link rel="icon">
Simply add the following code to the <head> element:
<link rel="icon" href="http://example.com/favicon.png">
What you're looking to add is actually a called a favicon. It is a tiny image you'd like to add next to the title of your website.
See this article for more info on favicons: https://www.abeautifulsite.net/what-are-favicons.
Some things to consider (taken from the article)
The most common sizes for favicons are:
32x32
48x48
64x64
-128x128
You can use a favicon generator to turn your image into the proper format and download it.
Insert the following code into your head after downloading your favicons and placing them in the directory of your html website.
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
Make sure you use an icon file with sizes as mentioned by #Joshua. Insert the following code.
<link rel="icon" href="....logo.ico?v=2" />
You will need to add ?v=2 query string to force a refresh. Otherwise you might have cache issues.
The image next to the page title in the browser tab - how can you link an image here?
That image is called 'favicon' and it's a small square shaped .ico file, which is the standard file type for favicons. You could use .png or .gif too, but you should follow the standard for better compatibility.
To set one for your website you should:
Make a square image of your logo (preferably 32x32 or 16x16 pixels, as far as I know there's no max size*), and transform it into an .ico file. You can do this on Gimp, Photoshop (with help of a plugin) or a website like Favicon.cc or RealFaviconGenerator.
Then, you have two ways of setting it up:
A) Placing it on the root folder/directory of your website (next to index.html)
with the name favicon.ico.
or
B) Link to it between the <head></head> tags of every .html file on your site, like this:
<head>
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico" />
</head>
If you want to see the favicon from any website, just write www.url.com/favicon.ico and you'll (probably) see it. Stackoverflow's favicon is 16x16 pixels and Wikipedia is 32x32.
*: There's even a browser problem with no filesize limit. You could easily crash a browser with an exceedingly large favicon, more info here
It is called 'favicon' and you need to add below code to the header section of your website.
Simply add this to the <head> section.
<link rel="icon" href="/your_path_to_image/favicon.jpg">
This is the favicon and is explained in the link.
e.g. from W3C
<link rel="icon"
type="image/png"
href="http://example.com/myicon.png">
Plus, of course the image file in the appropriate place.
Add a icon file named "favicon.ico" to the root of your website.
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="114x114" href="${resource(dir: 'images', file:
'apple-touch-icon-retina.png')}">
or you can use this one
<link rel="shortcut icon" sizes="114x114" href="${resource(dir: 'images', file: 'favicon.ico')}"
type="image/x-icon">
ADD THIS
**<HEAD>**
< link rel="icon" href="directory/image.png">
Then run and enjoy it
In my website, I want a small icon next to the title of my webpage. I do mean the one displayed on the tab in Chrome/IE/Firefox.
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="images/logo1.png" type="image/x-icon">
Note: Generally try to use ico file(recommended). You can use a tool to convert your LOGO to an ico file. There are many available on google.
You can do as,
<head>
<title>This is the title of my website.</title>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
</head>
Read this link
If your website doesn't have this icon you will get an error on every visited web page.
This favicon.ico must be 16 by 16 pixels. If it's larger or smaller, it will be ignored
and it won't be shown. You can create this icon by using a icon editor with an online generator or just by using Photoshop.

Is it possible to have this code:
<link rel="icon" href="icon.gif" />
Using css document?
(I would rather not have to go through and add that to every pages)
and is it possible to set title of page using css(I am not gonna use it as all pages have different title but just for general info)
You cannot set the favicon using CSS.... You need to use a link tag with rel value of shortcut icon.
Inorder to set that, you need to put the below string in between the <head> tags..
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" />
-----^-----
<!--Remember to have .ico as the extension else
some browsers fail to load other extensions -->
You need to also specify the type attribute here type="image/x-icon" if IE fails to load your favicon, if it loads fine, you can just ignore the type attribute.
You can't do it using CSS it can only be done by inserting
<link rel="icon" href="icon.gif" />
as you have described above..
CSS is used to format some text/images etc in the page and and there is nothing to format in icon let me guess if you are working on many pages you probably have either a blog or an script to generate pages just add this line of text in it..
And you can always change icon of each page at once by just changing the icon itself...:)
You can't set a favicon from CSS - if you want to do this explicitly you have to do it in the markup as you described.
Most browsers will, however, look for a favicon.ico file on the root of the web site - so if you access http://example.com most browsers will look for http://example.com/favicon.ico automatically.
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico">
In href, you have to pass the image url.
Here is the combination of combination of .ico and .gif image
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
<link rel="icon" type="image/gif" href="animated_favicon1.gif">
Google Chrome can't show the fav icon of the website http://www.hausnaturpur.de/
Whereas Firefox and other browsers support the fav icon.
This is the code used:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/newfavicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
What could be wrong?
Try moving the image to root folder such that the new path for image would be http://www.hausnaturpur.de/newfavicon.ico
Try this:
<link rel="shortcut icon"
href="http://www.hausnaturpur.de/images/newfavicon.ico">
If it works, than you should try this:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/newfavicon.ico">
from looking at the source of SO
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://cdn.sstatic.net/stackoverflow/img/favicon.ico">
also an article from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon
I would suggest checking that the image is being sent through by pressing f12 on your keyboard inside of Chrome and checking the network tab (you will have to do a refresh for it to work). The only other thing i can suggest is renaming your icon file to favicon.ico
Try adding the same row with only "icon" in the rel attribute.
