Site Icons???

[shizzle]

site icons. In some sites, I see it places an icon in the web adress field, like here, yahoo, google, and lots of other sites. Anybody know how to do this? csnation.counter-strike.net has one too.

<link REL="icon" HREF="image.png" TYPE="image/png">

That doesn't work in IE, though. This will work in both IE and Netscape but it has to be in .ico format:

<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="icon.ico">

For IE, you can also just put the favicon.ico in the same directory and it will be picked up without a <link>.

Netscape supports it in PNG format as well? Learn something new every day. Thanks Dusty.

but it doesn't seem to show up in IE until it is put in favourites.
