[opencms-dev] favicon.ico integration

[Bernd Wolfsegger]

Hi Thorsten,

you're right. I have tested it again. Just remebered this wrong type after upload.
But what ever type I set, the icon is there in the url line.
And I have done nothing additionally on my Tomcat/OpenCms/Apache etc. configuration for that.
x-icon should be configured there by default.

In the HTML I use this two lines and an additional GIF with the same picture.

|    <link rel="ICON" type="image/gif" href="<cms:link>../../resources/img/favicon.gif</cms:link>">
|    <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="<cms:link>../../resources/img/favicon.ico</cms:link>">

If it's an IE problem, perhaps the GIF helps ? No time to test it right now.

Kind regards, Bernd
