what is favicon.ico?

I know I learned this way back in the day... but I can't remember what or who this request is from. A little help?

Thanks

Any idea of how to put favicon in the next to the URL in the title bar. Read the article about putting it in the "favorites", but I think it would be professional and cool looking to have it next to the URL instead of ie's icon. Thanks.

I thought it went there as well as the favorites.

Scott,

You're right. After reading more about it I agree with you. I was hoping there was some way to have it up there when anyone got to your site, not just from the bookmark...Oh well wishful thinking.
