I see some web site has an icon to present the web site.

ASP.Net has favicon to present the web site.

I would like to know does ColdFsuion has similar function to have my web site an icon to present.

Your information and help is great appreciated,

Regards,

Iccsi,

    Favicons really have nothing to do with the server-side language you choose to use (ColdFusion, ASP.Net, PHP, etc.).  Rather, they are basic HTML functionality that has to be supported by the browser.  All you need to have a favicon in your web site is to add this to the <head> tag:

    <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="favicon.ico">

    There are online tools to convert GIF/PNG/JPG files into ICO files, such as this one: http://favicon-generator.org/.
