Re: [cobalt-users] favicon.ico

["Franklin S. Werren" <fswerren@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Favorite Icon is easy....
First off you must have IE5, second you must delete any favorites in your
favorite list list with the "e" icon that has it's own Icon. Then put the
favorite in and reload..... I have not tried it using Linux and IE5, sorta
an oxymoron to mix Bill Gates with a Linus Torvel.... <grin>
BINGO !!!!

My main page has a favicon.ico in it.
Remember the page must have this line in it to work, and the icon file.....

<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" href="favicon.ico">

ZDTV has a very good help page on it
