First create a logo file *.ico

Next:

Add the following lines in the header of you page:

Code: Select all

<link rel="icon" href="/logoicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/logoicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">

It's called a favicon.ico. Google favicon and you'll find lotsa instructions. Basically you just make a image, call it favicon.ico. (has to be a certain size), and through it in your root web directory.

favicon.ico

You can use this site

http://www.chami.com/html-kit/services/favicon/

to creat your own favicon from your own image.
