Just for the record - seems IE has a far more difficult time recognizing a
new favicon.
See this page for more info on how to make this work :

This seems to work in older browsers, although
apparently not in IE7
(beta) - guess is it uses the shorter <link rel="icon" rather than <link
rel="shortcut icon". Well it is simple to include both.
Do you have any clue what file the "<link rel ..." statement is located
in?
Failed to locate it in either monobook, or other files in the wiki folder,
which seems strange.
Best wishes,
Morten :-)

Hey guys,
On the server which has our Wiki we will probably have other sites
and applications as well.
I want to have a wiki favicon for our site which is different from
the ones for the other (if they even have one)
I understand a way to do this is to put <LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON"
HREF="favicon.ico"> in the <head> section.
I am guessing that there is a nice single place to put this line
in some php file but I can't guess where.
Does anyone have an idea where I can put this? I tried the <head>
section in the main index.php but that didn't work.
Thanks,
~Eric
When I did mine, I just copied my own favicon.ico into the wiki root
directory. The MediaWiki code is already setup to handle it. (View
the main page in your browser and view the source. You'll see it
about line #6.)
