Just wondering how people get the little icon in the URL in the browser address bar?

This site is nice: http://www.favicon.co.uk/

You can design one right in the browser window... then they send you the files you need.

Better yet, upload a pic and let this site do it for you: http://www.chami.com/html-kit/services/favicon/

If you don't have a favicon you will get file not found errors in your error logs.

If you use this is your html files (between head and title) you can have different favicons on different parts of your site.

[FONT=Courier New, Courier, mono][SIZE=-1]<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.yoursite.com/favicon.ico">[/SIZE][/FONT]


You will also get errors in your log files if you do not have a robots.txt file.
