How to display a Favicon?
I notice that Textgarden has a favicon, but I cannot see the link to it in view source.
Normally I use the following code:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" />
and upload the icon to the root. Can anyone please help explain where to link to a favicon, and whether it should be uploaded to root or the textpattern folder?
I am working on an internal server using MAMP, and so I can’t check myself.

Re: How to display a Favicon?
You can place the favicon.ico wherever you like. If you upload it to the root, place this somewhere in the <head></head> section of the page (Presentation > Pages):
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<txp:site_url />favicon.ico" />If it’s in your images directory:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<txp:site_url />images/favicon.ico" />Offline

Brilliant, thanks Els.
I’m still getting the hang of things in Textpattern, but on reflection that’s the obvious solution ;)

Many browsers do automatically look, and fetch, favicon.ico from domains root (domain.com/favicon.ico).
