if you would like to display the animated favicon, upload animated_favicon1.gif as well and insert the following HTML tags on the top of your
header OR
headinclude
Code:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" >
<link rel="icon" href="animated_favicon1.gif" type="image/gif" >
If you would like to test the favicon after updating your web page, the
Favicon Validator can check the favicon files and tags on your website.
