Need jargon help, please

[Edelweiss]

Hi there

Hope someone can help with a slightly weird question. I need to know what something is called and will have to explain. On the internet explorer toolbar there are tabs and your website's name appears on the tab, but it is also possible to put a little logo thingy on the tab. What is that called and how do you do it?

Thanks

favicon

Google will give you oodles of info.

KM-Tiger is correct. Basically, in a HTML file you need to add the following code:

<link href="location of your icon gif file" type="image/gif" rel="icon"/>It needs to be a 16x16 GIF image file.

LOL... I remember wondering the same thing not long time ago! :) I think if you Google favicon, you can find tons of sites where you can make your own for free.

Cheers! :)
