Favicon displays on some pages, not others

On my website, favicon.ico displays on all pages using FF browser but if I use Opera or Chromium it only displays on a few pages. Clearing the cache doesn't help. All of my pages have the same code in the header:
 <link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" />

The favicon is in the root folder of the website along with the webpages. I've tried using several variations of the favicon code such as:
<link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/icon"/> 
and
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/icon"/>
as well as changing the type in both cases to type="image/x-icon"
Can anyone suggest a solution?

Thanks in advance

Is the site using https for all files in the root folder?

Heh. I was about to ask if all pages are located at the root:
<link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" />

Larry, don't be one of the countless people wasting other people's time on the web. What was the exact header problem? Don't make this one of the countless pages on the web that is viewed by hundreds or even thousands of people who will read this thread over the coming decades and have wasted their time with yet another vague answer.
