Hit Ctrl-U to see the source code and what he's talking about. The third thing is that it sounds like he's not actually using a favicon.ico file. You can use a gif or something, but I think it only works in firefox and safari. <a href="http://standardmischief.com/2005/09/15/2/" rel="nofollow">This page</a>, has an animated gif as a favicon. (It's a glider, from the game of life. Yea, that's geeky). Again, I don't think those using IE are gonna see it. True favicon.ico files are some weird graphics standard created by Microsoft, and we're all stuck with it now. Here's the<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon" rel="nofollow"> wikipedia entry.</a> Anyway, I didn't post this comment to trash Rich, so much as to tell you way back when I was fooling with favicon.ico, I created on for you, Say Uncle. It's got both a 16x16 and a 32x32 picture that I cropped down from your banner logo. I was going to write further on the topic, but kinda lost interest. Anyway, I just tossed it up on my server. If you like it, you can either download it to your root directory or do the trick Rich said. http://standardmischief.com/sayuncle/favicon.ico Weird, not only did he not do what he is talking about, he messed up the example by not surrounding thingys with the code tag.
