Display web site logo on address bar - html

How can I display my web site logo on the address bar?

you just need the favicon.ico in your webroot. the browsers will pick it up automatically.
Using the suggested
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
allows to use differently named icons or different icons for certain pages.

You can put these inside <head> tag:
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
Make sure that you specify the correct path, usually the root folder.

Why does IE uses the image in rel="icon" instead of rel= "shortcut icon" when i create a shortcut of a page?

This is the code i used to declared which image to use as a page icon and which one to use as a desktop icon. Am i missing something?
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/src/images/desktop_favicon.ico" />
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/src/images/page_favicon.png">
Is it even possible to have a icon for the webpage and another for desktop?

Browser is not making any call for favicon

I have an spring application and i want to show favicon image.
In my case browser is not making any call favicon image by itself.
I tried
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<spring:url value="/assests/login/img/favicon.ico"/>"></link>
I also tried setting profile attribute in head
<head profile="http://www.w3.org/2005/10/profile">
in both cases browser is not making any call for favicon
Try this code
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="assests/login/img/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="icon" href="assests/login/img/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
What about this :
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="/assests/login/img/favicon.ico" />
or :
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/assests/login/img/favicon.ico" />

How to add favicon on newly created web page through notepad?

I have made a webpage through notepad. And want to have a "faveicon" but can't add it.
Here's my html's head part:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico"/>
after title part i typed this in head.
This worked for me..
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/specialicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
Just check this url.. it will helpful to you..
Just add the following in your HEAD section, remember to change type and href:
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="http://example.com/myicon.png">
You can make a 16x16 png and then use
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.png" type="image/png">
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="http://www.example.com/favicon.png" />
If you place a favicon in the root folder of your website called "favicon.ico" then it will work!
By putting the image in the same folder where my web page was located and writing this code it worked :)
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="h.ico">

Adding a favicon to a website

I added a icon to a site I built but the problem is it doesn't appear on Google Chrome And Safari. And here's what I did:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type">
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="icon/icon" href= Jo.ico />
<title>My site</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Well you haven't put speech marks on the href section. And also, you should give your content a more unique identifier, because text and html are keywords, so the browser may, hypothetically, misinterpret them.
Why don't you try this instead:
<link href="Jo.ico" rel="icon" type="image/x-icon">
Your browsers may also be caching the icon. Please make sure your browser cache is properly cleared.
Also, make sure the icon's path is correct ("Jo.ico" assumes the icon is in the same directory as the file containing the above line of HTML).

Favicon not showing in Chrome and IE8

Google Chrome and IE8/9 don't display my favicon. Here is my HTML code from the head tag:
<link rel="icon" href="images/favi.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favi.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
Can you please solve this issue?
Try this: <link rel="icon" type="image/ico" href="path_to_icon/favicon.ico"/>
put it in the root directory and it should work...
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"> for more info, see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon
and you should better use the default name favicon.ico,
probably you have to clean your cache in your browser first...
