:(  I didn't mention 'icon' in my post ........  it is such a common practice for me to drag the icon to the bookmarks Toolbar, that I never thought of someone attempting to drag the text!

Sorry  :(

Now that we've settled that, anyone have any idea how to add a favicon to a web page?

I believe that's a completely different topic.  Are you referring to a page you are creating or to a page which you cannot edit?

You need to have this code in between the <head> </head> tags of the page.

Code: [Select]

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="http://domain.tld/favicon.ico" />


You favicon can be any of the following formats

  .ico
  .gif
  .png
  .jpg

in sizes of 16×16, 32×32 and 64x64 as measured in pixels.

Thanks.  I suppose it's touchy about those sizes, too.
