What your wanting is a webpage/ tab icon.

You need to create/ find an image. That is (16px x 16px)

if you create it, make sure to save it as an ".ico" image.

Then place this code, in the header of your script :

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.YourDirectImageLink.ico">


of course, you would replace "YourDirectImageLink.ico" With the actual image.

You want a favicon. Just google "favicon" and there are free generators. Start with a completely square image 32px. Upload your image and then press the submit button. It will give you a file to download. Upload that to your server and be sure to create a link to the .ico file in the head of your index page.
