Address bar icon - offline
« on: July 01, 2009 »
Anyone know if it's possible to get an address bar icon to display in an off-line webpage ?
I'm working on one of them offline Webpage CDs which autoruns when the disc is entered.

The current image on disc is 48x48 pixels (.ico file), which i made for the CDs disc drive image.
But I'd also like it to be taken to the address bar for the CDs webpages, or do I need to make another
icon at 16x16 ?

i think you can use the one you have.. just name it "favicon.ico" and place it in the base html directory.. i.e where you have index.html and it should use it... im not 100% certain though, but just try it :)

Thanks guys, cd is looking much more proffesional now  8)

If anyone else is doing bitmap icons or such, I highly recommend trying out ICOfx:
http://icofx.ro/
Makes the job a bit quicker, especially if you're original image is a jpeg or PNG etc  :)
