    Icons on tabs

    Does anyone know how to put an icon on a tab like this (see attachment) in Dreamwaver. I assume you have to edit the html page but thats as far as I know.

    It can go anywhere in the head section.

    I'm not that hard to imitate. Just make some random negative claim at Apple or anything else for that matter and then have nothing to back it up.

    Hi,

    I am editting my first flash template and trying to add a favicon, I have uploaded a 16x16 favicon.ico to the root and have added the following code to the index.html:

    Code:
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.mysite.co.uk/favicon.ico" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon"> 
    <link rel="icon" href="http://www.mysite.co.uk/favicon.ico" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon">
    But still nothing is showing, this is the same code I use for my standard html websites, is there something I have to do differently for flash templates?

    Sorry for hijacking this post...
