Hi

Does anyone know how I can get the DNN symbol to appear in the address field
of the internet explorer browser when somebody visits  my DNN site http://www.kenkou.se

It appears automatically on http://kenkou.se  but not on http://www.kenkou.se

I have not done anything to make it appear or not appear as I didn´t know how it happens....

I am not sure why, is there anything you guys can help me with. It looks cooler when the DNN symbol appears rather than just the traditional internet explorer symbol.

Best Regards
Rolf

The icon you see is the favicon.ico file in the root of the website.
It's a general technique, not DNN specific, but IE (at least 6) handles it eh... like the CSS standards.
The icon sometimes doesn't show up sometimes it does and gets cached.
Then you are in trouble if you want to change it since the "old one" will keep showing up.
I think you have to reset the windows icon cache to get rid of it....
In Firefox both your url's show the icon. I didn't test the behaviour of IE 7 on this yet.

Some more info

DNN has a special way of handling favicon.ico files. If you put a favicon.ico in the portal root of your portal, that one will be used instead of the one in the application root. This is very usefull if you are running multiple sites from one instance...

Thanks Eric, I didn't know that. (I should have written app root instead of website root)
I just tested this and the icon does get picked up by FF and Opera but not by IE 6 (as usual)...

Hi

Sorry to jump in on this thread, does the favicon.ico located in the root folder require an associated link  from the default.aspx file?

Thanks
