    I noticed that when I made FlashKit a favorite in Internet Explorer, it had it's own little custom icon (instead of the blue 'e' over the piece of paper). It was an F inside a box. How'd they do this? The only other site that's done it so far is Google, the search engine. Anyone know how do make that work?

    Here!

    You must have flashkit added to your favorites! :¬)
    If you look there is an icon there, next to flashkits link...

    Go to the dreamweaver website and look for Favicon plugin... this'll sort all your worries! :¬)

    Hope this helps..

    (I'm guessing this is how its done.. I might be compleatly wrong though!) :¬)

    That's a good way to handle it.
    But it only works in Internet Explorer, as far as I know.

    Icon in address bar

    I've seen some sites (I think lineone.net recently did this) have icons in the address bar. Anyone know how this is done?

    It might show the icon in the location bar if you have that site bookmarked!

    Nope, I don't have it bookmarked and it used to do it (doesn't now though).

    I found:
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">
    in the source code of cjb.net, my short-url forwarding co, so maybe that does both the above?

    I'll try it when I get time and post back if it works!
