Favicon Won't Display In IE
Howdy, I was wondering if anyone knew why my favicon wasn't displaying in IE 7, but was in Firefox.

I added the favicon to my root directory, and added the following tag to my header '<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" >'

The site is linked in my sig in case you need to check it out.

Thanks

My guess it's the same behaviour as in IE 6 which only showed the favicon if the page was bookmarked.

Try that first.

That may be it. I bookmarked the site, then closed my browser. It still didn't show. But once I rebooted, it is now showing.

Thanks Geoff
