All you need to do is put your favicon.ico in the root folder (so you'll be able to find it at http://www.yoursite.com/favicon.ico) and modern browsers will automatically use it.

 

If you really feel the need to add code, or your icon was called something other than "favicon.ico" or placed somewhere other than the root folder, you'll need the following code in the head tag of every single page

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.yoursite.com/folder/favicon.ico">

http://www.yourwebsite.com/favicon.ico

 

The only modern browser that will need to be told where your favicon.ico is, is Opera.

 

Opera is a law into it's self.

 

This is a bug in Opera - If you have had Opera installed from many previous versions and simply upgraded it, it will not look for the 'favicon.ico'.

 

To fix this small bug, un-install Opera completely - Then reinstall the latest version.
