Try <link rel="shortcut icon" Type="image/x-icon" href="http://www.mysite.com/images/myicon.ico"> IE can be picky

Failure is not an option It's included free, you don't have to do anything to get it
If at first you dont succeed, join the club
Of course its always in the last place you look, you dont keep looking after you find it

Please mark solved problems, solved

Hi,

I think you have to complete your code with :
type="image/x-icon"
and also, put the file "myicon.ico" at the root of your site and not in the images folder.
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="images/myicon.ico"/>

Good luck.
Jocelyn

What doctype are you using?

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/youriconname.ico" />
will work in both ie and ff if you are using xhtml 1.0 T

you might also try:
<link rel="Shortcut Icon" type="image/ico" href="/favicon.ico" />
or end with: href="favicon.ico" /> and put the favicon directly in the public_html folder and not in a subfolder.

I made a mistake in my previous reply in the html code. Sorry.
I said you have to put the "Icon.ico" at the root of your website. It's true but I don't give you the correct html code.

You have to write

<link rel="Shortcut Icon" type="image/ico" href="/favicon.ico" />
or end with: href="favicon.ico" />

Another way to call your icon, implemented in W3C standards:
html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. <head profile="http://www.w3.org/2005/10/profile"> <!-- Must be implemented if you are using any icon inside your (x)HTML document. -->
  2. <title>Your Site</title>
  3. <link rel="icon" type="image/ico" href="pathToIcon/yourfavicon.ico" />
