<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.shinyb.com/favicon.ico">

thats all i done, just following the links i posted on the previous pages
i have one site with a different icon on each page using the above 1.2.3

Ok, I opened Windows Explorer and the opened the index.htm file with NotePad. I inserted the following code just before the </Head> :

<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON"
HREF="/index.htm/RECMGM flag.ico">

Didn't work. In fact, when I saw that it didn't work, I reopened the index.htm file in Windows Explorer and the code I had put in there was gone.

Yes Ron, it sounds like you've manually placed your text into the pages source file. If this is the case this part of the html file will be lost every time you re-export your site from XX. You need to use a head placeholder. I'll see if I can find a link.

Here you go Ron

Ron, the mistake you have made is:

<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON"
HREF="/index.htm/RECMGM flag.ico">

It should be on one line not contain index.htm not be UPPER CASE and use no spaces.

Use this:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/recmgm-flag.ico" />

As for it disappearing? Could you have perhaps forgotten to save after editing in notepad?

**Ron Duke** · 10 September 2009, 04:12 AM

Like this:

<link rel="shortcut icon"href="/home_htm_files/bitmaps/RECMGMflag.ico">

**steve.ledger** · 10 September 2009, 04:22 AM

Not quite Ron

Like this:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/home_htm_files/bitmaps/recmgmflag.ico" />

When I said no spaces, I was referring to the space in the name of the icon and it being upper case.
Just ensure your .ico file is where the href is pointing to

**Ron Duke** · 10 September 2009, 04:28 AM

Ok. I copied what you wrote in your last post and pasted it into a placeholder on my index page, then published it. Still no icon.

**steve.ledger** · 10 September 2009, 04:31 AM

Did you rename your icon to 'recmgmflag.ico' and make sure you uploaded it to /home_htm_files/bitmaps/ ??

**Ron Duke** · 10 September 2009, 04:35 AM

I'll double check, but yes, I renamed it so there were no upper case letters and used Fire fox FTP server to make sure the file was copied over to the correct directory. Give me a minute and I'll double check...

**steve.ledger** · 10 September 2009, 04:40 AM

Can you give me the full URL to your .ico please

If it's at your BuyDezignz site, something like: http://buydezignz.com/home_htm_files/bitmaps/recmgmflag.ico
