favicon question
I have a webapp deployed under tomcat + apache.
I have a taglib in which i have the following:
out.print("<link rel='shortcut icon'
href='/mywebapp/images/favicon.ico' type='image/x-icon'>");
The favicon.ico is a 16 * 16 icon file.
The favicon shows up in Safari on the Mac , but not on netscape, or IE
. On windows it does not show up in either IE or Netscape.
I have not put the favicon in the webservers root from where it can get
it by default. As you can see I have it in mywebapp/images folder.
Does anybody know why this does not work? Or do browsers dont have
support for this much ?
Regards.

1/ My understanding is that most browsers look for the URI /favicon.ico.
It (sort of) makes sense, since browsers don't distinguish between
different webapps: they just know, "I go to this host."
2/ Please post new messages to the list, instead of just replying to old
ones.

Look into your logs, where is IE looking for "favicon.ico"?
Nix.
