| How do I get an image to show to the left of the title on the page tab? For instance, on this page there is a blue lower-case "i" showing. On Yahoo's pages, their purple "Y" in a circle with an exclamation point shows. I have several sites I maintain, have never seen how they do this. Can anyone help me? Thanks. |

| Google "favicon". It will tell you how to make and how to code. |

| Okay, I googled it and followed directions. However, it still does not show up on the tab or on the address bar. It does show up on my favorites and on the favorite bar when I add the site there. I'm using IE8 if that helps. Any other suggestions? |

How did you put the code in? You should have something like
Code: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" /> in the head section. |

I put the following text under the <head> tag:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
<link rel="icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="/favicon.ico">
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="favicon.ico"/>
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="http://www.stjohnboscoco-op.org/favicon.ico">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> |

| Okay, I figured it out. After doing everything the tutorials said, I also had to delete my browsing history (IE menu Tools:Delete Browsing History), close IE and restart the program. After that, the favicons showed up fine. Thanks for the help. |
