After fooling around awhile, I renamed my file favicon1.ico, made the proper adjustment to my code, and WALA, it worked. Not sure why, but favicon.ico just would not work. Just figured I would pass it along if people are having a hard time getting theirs to work.

Although it does work, I don\'t think it\'s the correct approach. Favicon.ico are normally stored in the cache of your website. Making it work for you, means you have to reload the .ico itself. To do so, go to your .ico file on your webpage. [quote]Example: http://www.marcofolio.net/images/favicon.ico[/quote] Then reload the .ico file (Ctrl+R or F5). Now the new favicon.ico will show up. When going back to the \"main page\", your favicon should display correct. Still, your technique will work too, thanks for sharing.

My website is www.funkynacho.com, I use freewebs to make it, and my favicon i\'m trying to use is [img]favicon.ico[/img] (P.S. If it doesn\'t show its suppose to be a nacho. Could you help me out? Seth Wed, 06 Feb 2008 01:36:28 +0100 http://www.marcofolio.net/webdesign/how_to_create_a_favicon_for_your_website.html#josc976 I now see a white \"F\" displaying on a red background. You should place the \"LINK REL\" in the \"HEAD\" section of your website. Good luck!

If it\'s larger, the .ICO extension will not display.
