One of the websites I set up recently is a Free Bitcoin Disposal Service. Problem is, I can't seem to be able to get the favicon working. I grabbed the favicon from this forum via this link. Now, my site works offline but for some reason, it doesn't show up once I transfer the files via FTP and the site is actually online. The relevant part of the code is:

Code:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico">

Which points to the favicon.ico file which is in the same directory as index.html.

Does anyone know what's going on and how I can get the favicon to show up? The only explanation I can think of is that Bitcointalk's favicon is a fake which seems pretty unlikely.

I see a small bitcoin logo being used as a favicon so it appears to be working on Safari.

Is your command in the <head> section?

Try adding the file type, making it a direct link, and removing the space.  That's all I can think of to help with various browser issues.

For example:
<link rel="icon" type="image/png"  href="http://bitcoin.jacktopia.com/favicon.ico">

Your favicon is working on side. Did you fix it already?

I've had this problem before but I've forgotten how I fixed it properly, I think there's just a delay between the upload time and the time it takes for the website updates itself.

That's it. Sometimes the speed of electrons is slower on some parts of the globe.  Roll Eyes BTW, it's working.

Yeah, it looks like I was just a bit too impatient because it's showing up now. Bit weird because I had uploaded another site in the same domain space afterward and the favicon displayed instantly but I guess that's the Internet for ya.

Now closing this thread. Thanks for the help. Smiley
