Default How come ?
See the attached image for 'how come' T_T
actually my question is: how can the file favicon.ico be displayed in there ( where I arrowed red ) when I visit 2 site: vb.com and ffrepublic.com but the problem is it doesn't appear in vbt.com and vb.org and either my site does >_<.
Is there a way to have favicon.ico displayed in beside the link of vb site ?
I use MyIE browser, it doesn't appear in IE nomatter what (is there another way too ? ^^).
Sorry but is this a vb question ? I don't know where to put it so I laid it here.

Good question - and tbh I don't know why. I think that you have to use something like <link type="favicon" href="favicon.ico" /> or something in the <head> tags these days. But i'm probably completely wrong

<a href="http://www.favicon.com/" target="_blank">http://www.favicon.com/</a>

Maybe it says on there?

Microsoft also guides that: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ortcutIcon.asp
use this: <HEAD>
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.mydomain.com/myicon.ico">
<TITLE>My Title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
But I cannot get it work, favicon.com said that I should ask my host manager to enable *.ico files but does that matter when I can view it via its own url ?
and when I view the source of the page has favicon in the address bar, I see nothing like <LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.mydomain.com/myicon.ico">
how come ? T_T

vb.org now has the favicon display in front of its every links.
Does anyone know why ? I also want to have a favicon displayed.

well, it wasn't there because that file was actually missing on the server

i've uploaded it yesterday again, so that's the reason why it's there now

Hmm, i never changed anything, so i think it's a standart in vb.
maybe just a little option in the ACP settings

@apoc: hmm, i think paint from windows can handle them.
