You should not do that, just upload a favicon.ico file to the root of your website.

You might need to hard-refresh the page a couple of times or even empty your cache before being able to see it.

And i see your favico normally in my firefox.

What should i not do ? Implementing the code in the header? how will the browser automatically catch the favicon through my link when i will not provide ? O_o

Okay, i will clear my cache then check for it.

Yea, it's just uploading favicon.ico to your root. It will automatically catch the favicon.

nothing else needed. but make sure it is uploaded to the root folder and not any other folder Smile
Who said he should not include in header (or headerinclude)?

Both technique works. All he has to do is clear his browser cache, hard refresh (Ctrl + F5) several times.
