favicons

[bigheadpirate]

ok. i don't know whats up with either my comp or this forum, but i
can't reply to my last thread, hence, this one. im trying to get
favicons to work on my site. ive got it so that they will appear in
the address bar, on tabs in firefox, and in the favorites drop down
menu of ie. however, it will not appear in the bookmarks menu in
firefox. other sites' favicons work in firefox, just not mine. im
stumped once again.
noob out.

If my copy of FireFox is typical, favicons do not show in FireFox
bookmark menu.

You are correct.

If we're talking about the same thing, they do show up in mine.

Then you are likely not thinking about the same. FireFox doesn't show
favicons in its bookmark menu.
Go to http://www.google.com/ and choose Bookmarks | Bookmark this page.
Then find Google in the Bookmarks and notice that it doesn't have the
colored G favicon as there are in the address bar.

The Bookmarks menu does not display favicons.
However, the Bookmarks sidebar does, but not for every site. The
favicons for http://windowsmedia.com and www.msn.com do not display,
whereas those for www.rxs-enterprises.org and www.spiderwebwoman.com
do.

Correction - the bookmarks menu does not display favicons unless you
have viewed the bookmarks sidebar. Is there a switch here somewhere?
I normally do not use the sidebars.

i have never used the sidebar and mine DO work (not for my web page
though). however, its only after i have clicked the link in the
bookmarks menu that the favicon shows up in there. heres another
screenshot in action.

i hope this goes through because my computer has a tendency to get a
server full message at this site.
