Its far more simple than you think. Just place an icon file (.ico) in the folder from where your index.htm gets loaded and it will start showing it with the browser

For all javascript related tips and tricks (including loads of readymade free javascripts) you can go to http://www.javascript.com and http://www.internet.com.

The link provided by etaf says the same thing as I did. Keep the .ico file in the same folder as your index.htm. Of course the link also tells you a couple of more things. So its worth going there and reading the contents.
