Unable to add favicon to my jsp

I am unable to add a favicon to my jsp page. Adding the favicon as a link to a specific path did not work for me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here you can see my WebContent folder with what I tried, as well as the path to the icon I used.

My Web-Content folder

Solution

  • You should put the favicon inside the Web-Content folder directly (not in the image folder) if you want the best compatibility with most browsers.

    The link would then be: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="home_logo_vPK_icon.ico?" type="image/x-icon" />

    Also, did you refresh the cache before testing? If not, reset the cache, or you will not see your changes.

    Finally, it could also be your icon. Try using a favicon generator.
