[solved]Graphic in URL line of browser -- HOW TO ?

[DJ Big Jack]

I"ve noticed that many webpages display a small graphic in the browser URL line, just to the left of the ' http:// ' An example is Google at http://www.google.com which displays a graphic with a capital "G"

Does anyone have info on how to do this on a website?

Just put a favicon.ico file on your website, browsers look for that file to use as the icon to display

I knew it was something simple .. but without knowing the name 'favicon.ico' .. I didn't know how to look it up !

In any case, I downloaded an icon editor and created icons for a couple sites I maintain ... worked great ! Thanks again.

Oh, the sites are
