HTML Favicon

A favicon (short for "favorites icon") in HTML is a small, typically 16x16 pixel icon associated with a website or web page.

It appears in various places, such as the browser's address bar, tabs, bookmarks, and other UI elements. The favicon helps users quickly identify a website among multiple open tabs or bookmarks.

To include a favicon in an HTML document, you can use the <link> element in the <head> section of your HTML code. Here's an example:

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html><link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon"href="/images/favicon.ico" >
<title>Your Website Title<title>
<body>
<!-- Your webpage content goes here -->
</body>
</html>

You can click on above box to edit the code and run again.
