Only fairly recent browsers support favicons, and some don’t support them at all. Mozilla does this Internet Explorer for Windows does this if the site has been bookmarked.
The favicon may be displayed in the browser’s address bar, to the left of the URL.If your browser supports tabbed browsing, the favicon may be displayed on the tab.If you bookmark a site that has a favicon, the favicon may be displayed against the site name in the bookmark list.A favicon is a resource file used by web sites to customise a visitor’s experience of the site in their browser - albeit in a small way.Įxactly how this customisation manifests itself depends on the visitor’s browser, as different browsers have different support for favicons.
