I have a favicon.ico file, but I don see it in my favorites folder when I bookmark or rebookmark my site. Whats wrong?
If you are having trouble seeing your new icon, it is probably because you had an existing bookmark for that page already. IT IS HARD TO CHANGE EXISTING BOOKMARKS. Rest assured, however, your new bookmark is visible to the rest of the world and any new bookmarks will be seen with that logo. If you want to see the new logo, we have 2 possible remedies (Thanks Pete Harwood): 1. VISUAL CHECK (RECOMMENDED) – Enter the URL of your favicon (ie http://www.favicon.com/favicon.ico) into your browser. Is your updated icon displayed or downloaded? 2. RENAME FAVICON – When using the tag method for specifying the location your favicon, change the HREF (the URL) value specifying the location of your favicon. This is usually done by renaming your favicon.ico (ie newfavicon.ico)and updating the link tag. IE. Rebookmarking forces IE to download the new icon as it doesn’t have the newicon.ico file in cache. It is also good habi
