I think dsource.org could benefit from a "favicon" (it's the icon that shows up in tabs in tabbed browers). It should be easy to do.

I tested these instructions with my local Apache server. All I did was add favicon.ico to the DocumentRoot directory and added a line to httpd.conf:
Code:
AddType image/x-icon .ico
and it worked when I restarted the server.

I made a suggested favicon.ico and uploaded it to:
http://jcc_7.tripod.com/d/dsrc_ideas.html

Also, we might want to replace the 100x49 dsource image at the bottom of the home page with the 100x63 image on my ideas page. Just a suggestion.

I was able to pull off the favicon thing, but I mostly did it in the page's source.

Code:

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


The Apache thing only works for IE, but the link tag works for most if not all browsers, I think.

The Apache thing seemed to work for me with Mozilla Firebird (I didn't try IE), but this link tag works for me, too.

Thanks! Now, I can easily spot the dsource tab(s) in my browser.

Works for me. IE supposedly looks for favicon.ico in the current dir, then the root (no need for code).
