What is Favorites Icon?

May I have multiple favorites icons with different web pages? and how to do that?
Yes you can.
If you want different pages on your Web site to have different Favorites Icons.
You'll need to upload those favorites icons to your site and change the code "/favicon.ico", make it point to whichever Favorites Icon you want to display for that page.
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="where your favicon.ico file located" /> |
Why do I need to make a FavIcon for my site?
Originally, Internet Explorer only used favicon.ico for bookmarks (MSIE 6.0 and older versions). But now, newer versions of Internet Explorer (7.0 and above) and most other browsers(Ex. Mozilla Firefox) also display the favicon in the address bar on every visit, so this is becoming more important than before. |
