OFFICIALLY SPEAKING:
FAVICON
HTML Tag in HEAD Section:
To link your html or xhtml file to a favicon, there are some different approaches:
Standard: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
W3C Standard "best practised": <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
DepreciatedA.1:<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="/favicon.ico" />A.3)
So it is best practise to use just 2 tags: (for "official" compliance)
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon"/>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon"/>
for some custom templates, just replacing the default favicon doesn't do it and you gotta add the code to templates, like the header or forumhome etc.
