Icon in tab

I've noticed some websites have icons or icon like pictures in the URL
address space (or in the tabs if you are using Firefox.)

Its a nice touch. How do we do it in FrontPage.

GMW,

To create an icon for your site that appears when the page is open or
when someone saves it as a favorite site you will need an icon editing
program that will allow you to make an icon. After creating an icon for
your site, just save it to the main area as iconname.ico. FP
automatically picks it up as an icon file and will start to display it
instead of the default IE icon.

the little picture is a favicon. There are some sites where you can make
them.
http://www.html-kit.com/e/favicon.cgi is one.
then put them into your root folder and add the statement in the
<head></head> section:

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

So it is not a "front page" thing, you just have to edit HTML under code
view.

The web browsers will look for the image and display it.
I just added one to http://www.rednecklife.us/ but they don't usuallyshow
up with IE, only Mozilla.
