Hello
I am trying to build a website using dreamweaver on IDNET and I would like to put a favicon on but I am struggling to do this, I have tried putting html in before the 'head' but this doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help?
Thanks
What HTML coding did you use?

You're not a professional "meet and greet" person in real life are you Simon? ;D
It could be one of my many hidden talents, Mad. In fact, they're so well hidden, even I can't find them! ;)

Fat chance. ;)
hehe,
no choc for me :( most boxes say "may contain nut traces" so i stay well away.
Do you know if BBC Radio (103.6, Wiltshire for me) have pod casts on there site? My boss was on it the other day and he wants it to put on our site.
I don't, sorry. I've never seen anything other than national stations.
Make a 16x16 pixel image for the icon in 16 colour mode. I believe it may not display (browser dependent) if it isn't 16x16 in 16 colours. Save it as a 16 colour BMP file. Rename the file to favicon.ico and put it in the same folder on the server as the html file and tweak the header accordingly. The browser should sort it out :)

Good luck,
