374188	2005-07-22 01:42:00	Hello :) Is it possible for the favicon to show up next to the url in IE? ( Like what happens in firefox) E.g. see pic: www.webstarters.co.nz The code I am using is: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"> Any ideas? :confused:	stu161204 (123)

Personally I tried many ways to get IE to use my favicon for my site but nothing I did made it work so eventually gave up. Firefox finds it and uses it easy as we all know. I use a different code though.... <link rel="shortcut icon" href="www.cncnz.com type="image/x-icon">A Google search gives you heaps of info so have a look www.google.co.nz	SonicNZ2 (7884)
