I implemented it on my (non-English) blog in Firefox. Good job! I like how you took elements of your header and made your own specialized favicon. i just did it on - however the e explorer still causes troubles.
Thank you very much for this great instruction on how to set up a favicon. The favicon will show up!ġ2/29/06 - the head tags look like this: andġ/8/07 - it was brought to my attention by a reader, T.M., that the favicon can be saved as a 'png' file and it will work as well.ġ2/5/08 - Blogger has done things to our favicons.

Update: Favicons only appear in IE if the site is in your bookmarks. (Not sure about the rhyme or reasoning here, but some do.some don't.) Added bonus! If you use Mozilla Firefox (why wouldn't you?) it will also show up on the tabs!!!! The favicon will now appear in most browsers address bar and bookmarks. Replace " " with the URL of where your webspace stored your ico file, & paste the code between the head tags of your blog.
To get the favicon on your blogger, you need a code to add to your template, and this is it: This is a free web hosting and online file sharing service. Now, upload that ico file to your webspace. A great graphic viewer (free I might add.I'm all about free) is IrfanView.

Delta-Tango-Bravo was another favorite site. See the little icon next to my URL in the address bar that looks like this? This was more fun! First, let me explain what a 'favicon' is.
