Icon mime/media type?

Postby JAB Creations » Thu Sep 17, 2009 3:29 pm

Safari is giving me a wrong mime error for my site's favicon and I can't seem to find any answer to what I should set the type for icons in .htaccess?

The format is icon...because, it's an icon. :lol: I used Greenfish Icon Editor Pro (freeware) if that helps any.

You mean the Microsoft ICO format?

The registered type for that format is image/vnd.microsoft.icon.

You could use PNG or some other image format for the favicon if you want, though.
