RE: Favicon?

Try clearing cache. We had to exit out of our browser entirely.

We just tried IE9 and it works. I'm not familiar with what weird things happen in IE8.

Click the compatibility icon? (This solved one of Symphony's issues)

Reboot?

Just did all of the above, except upgrade to IE9. Our nine-year-old dinosaur can barely load IE8. Undecided

We had Compatibility View disabled, but we enabled it temporarily to see if it would help. It didn't, unfortunately. We also rebooted, but that didn't help, either.

Anyone else using IE8? Can you see the favicon next to your MM link?

RE: Favicon?

I use IE8. I just logged off and back on and don't see it.

Thanks for the validation. Helps us to know that we're not the only one.

RE: Favicon?

Indeed I found a long thread of woe about IE8 and favicons

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/...bfad322657

MD, can you create a fresh .ico and send it to me. One of the things that seems to happen is if you convert to .ico from another format, IE8 won't pick it up. So let's try that.

I have my work laptop with me at home, but I refuse to open it before Tuesday. Tongue

Thanks much. We actually did one for our own site using an online .ico maker. Since Lea wants us to supply a new iteration of the .ico, we hope we can find the website that we used.

Stay tuned.

Not that site, but something similar. See the thread on the testing forum. The new file is ready.

Okay, Lea....after you installed the new file, we did the following:

Logged out of MM
Closed our browser (IE8)
Cleared all MM-related files out of Cookies and Temporary Internet Files
Re-opened IE8
Logged into MM again

Still no favicon displaying in IE8. And it's not showing in Temporary Internet Files.

Undecided
