Bookmark/Favorite icon

**jakt** · 09-17-08, 07:40 AM

Wouldn't it be great to have a bookmark/favorite icon for TTP. :10
Here is the one I made

Here is the code to make it work.

Code:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.texasteamplayers.com/TTP.ico">

Maybe the rest of yall could make some suggestions too. The file needs to be a ".ico" format.

Here is an example.

SHIT pm(ed) BD with this stupid shit. Didn't think about putting it here.
As if he doesn't have enough shit in his mail box already.

guess you caught my drift when I didn't reply.

where would this go? why? favorite and bookmark links are right there in people's browsers...aren't they?

To make this work, we just have to rename and upload it to the website so the exact URL is "http://www.texasteamplayers.com/favicon.ico". Most browsers will automatically look for it there, but the code can be added too.

BTW, I just checked, and we already have an icon in place.

Maybe it doesn't load in IE without the code. Firefox automatically loads it.

I just added the <link> code to the template, but I still don't see IE trying to load it, even after nuking my cache.

wow... Piece-O-Shit IE doesn't show it, thought it was cause the code wasn't there or that you just didn't have one.

Gave my copy of Firefox a try, and voilà icon pops up.

I'll look and see if there is any new code out for IE.

OK, I think I may have solved the problem with IE not displaying the favicon.ico file.

When I go to my Temporary Internet Files, the TTP favicon file type says BMP eventhought the file name is favicon.ico which should be an icon file.

I've saved out your existing icon as an icon file type

, eventhough I like mine better
