Image in Address Bar

I am just a new user training myself in Dreamweaver. However
I am at a loss in how to create those little 1cm*1cm images that
some web sites have up in the address bar by their URL. To be
honest I don't even know what they are called or anything. Any help
much appreciated.

ignore !!! Didn't realize that the OP had started another
thread with the same question

Shortcut image and address bar image

When user create shortcut on desktop, how to give special
image for a project?. when u create shortcut of adobe site, it
shows adobe logo. How can i do this?
How can i create special image on address bar...like youtube
got?.

First save a 16 by 16 pixel image as favicon.ico into your
root folder.
You can also add lines like this into your header:
<link rel='shortcut icon' href='/USflag.ico' /> 
<link rel="icon" href="/Usa2.gif" type="image/gif" />

All images should be 16 by 16.
IE6 will show the icon, under select circumstances, in the
"favorites" folder only.

How to change the default BC image that shows in the address bar?

Does anyone know how to change the default BC image that shows in the address bar? I want to swap it out so the client logo shows next to their URL.
Thank you!

Hi,
If you are trying to change the favicon for your site,
You can do it from Site Manager-> Page template -> Default Template
Look for the code <link type="image/x-icon" href="/Path for your image" rel="icon" />, and Click save.
Now where you will use this template, it will display your favicon for that webpage instead of BC favicon. You can define it on Page directly if you are not going to use template.
Please let me know if you have any doubt.

An unwanted JPG image of handwashing came into my address bar?

I had not been looking for anything to do with health or handwashing. It was as if I had asked a question about preventing the flu??. I had just finished reapplying for California lifeline service on my telephone and had done it online. I then went back to my Web mail page & sent a message to Zoom panel whom I have done surveys for sev. years about why I hadn't been getting any surveys lately. I had just bfinished this when on my address bar a new address?? came up "1402.jpg(JPG IMAGE,425x338 pixels). When I clicked on it--itwas a picture of someone washing their hands vigorously--like in a medical illustration!. This had nothing to do with anything I had done all day??!! I tried to get rid of it--but to no avail.

If this image is open in a tab, you should be able to close it the way you close other tabs (for example, Ctrl+w).
If this image now appears on one of your toolbars, there are a couple possible ways that might occur:
(1) Is it a bookmarked site? If so, you can right-click the icon and choose Delete from the menu.
(2) Is it an add-on button? You can check whether you have any unrecognized or unneeded extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Any progress in eliminating the unwanted image?

Images scrolling into address bar

I was browsing a page avclub and scrolling down the page when I noticed the static image of a video appearing in the address bar of the current tab. I was able to repeat the effect right down the page. As I scrolled down and the page with video previews move up I could see them appearing in the address bar. No text just graphic.
When I switched to a new tab - which happened to be the addons tab I could see the image from the previous tab clearly displayed on the whitespace of the addons tab.
Today the effect occurred again with an image - not from avclub this time - showing through from one page to the next.
I have not seen this behaviour ever before. What could be causing it?

I can't tell from the system information you posted whether Firefox's own graphics hardware acceleration feature could be causing the problem. You could try disabling it, since it sometimes can cause artifacts (i.e., content fails to be cleared from the screen properly).
You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

When I drag and drop an icon from the address bar to the desktop is does creat the shortcut but will not display the website icon, only the firefox icon, how can I display website icons?

When I drag and drop a website icon from the Forefox address bar to the desk top, the short cut is created but the icon that appears is the firefox Icon. I want to disply the icon from the website that the short cut refers to. I have checked all I can think of in my computer to no avail.

You have to assign the favicon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click the shortcut: Properties) after you have dragged the link to the desktop.
You can usually find the favicon in Tools >Page Info > Media and save the icon there.
Otherwise use the main domain of the website and add favicon.ico (e.g. mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder.

Url does not show up in address bar...and when i type in a search box, the cursor jumps up to the address bar automatically

I'm not sure what happened. However, I can never see the URL in the address bar anymore.
I go from page to page, and the URL shows only for a split second, then disappers.
All the address bar says is "Search or enter address"
I copy and paste a lot of URL links for work, so this makes it very painful and a hassle now.
Where now i need to go back, right click on a link, and do "copy link location".
Where as i used to just go up to the address bar and copy the URL.
Also, I notice now when I start typing on certain search boxes.
The cursor automatically jumps to the URL address bar as soon as I start typing. Which is really annoying.
It will only do it once it seems....but its annoying when i try to type a search...only to see that i've been typing in the URL address box cus it jumped up there.
PLEASE HELP!!!!

I poofed away my address bar and can't get it back

I was trying to get a URL for an image this morning, but for some reason couldn't drag the picture up to my address bar. Everything just kept highlighting instead. This was frustrating, so I tried "right" clicking and saving the image address, which I then tried to paste into my address bar. For some reason, it wouldn't let me paste anything. I tried doing it from the "Edit" tab, and I tried doing it through "apple+v"
None of it worked. I tried this at least three times. Somehow, the third or fouth time I clicked on the address bar and hit "apple+v" my address bar literally poofed away. Like I was taking something out of my dock. The back, forward, reload, and stop buttons are all still visible and functioning, it's just the specific "Address" and "Search" bars that I'm missing.
I didn't know this was possible! I tried to get it back through the "View" tab: I tried going through "Customize Address Bar" and "Hide/Show Address Bar" and I restarted everything at least five times. Apparently, my roommate tried the same thing and managed to poof his address bar away too (who knew!) but was able to get it back through the "Customize Address Bar" tab. For some reason, it's not letting me drag anything anywhere. (Or cut and paste anything! I tried copying something from Safari and pasting it into another application, and that didn't work either.)
Does anyone have any suggestions? I was going to google it, but I can't figure out how to get there :/

Quit Safari, find the com.apple.Safari.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder, drag it to the Desktop, log out/in or restart and let us know what happens.

My address bar has disappeared in Safari 5.1 - not the same issue as discussed elsewhere in Forum

My address bar has disappeared in Safari 5.1. When I click "Customize Toolbar" to fix it, the Home and arrow buttons become unusable--they just click but nothing happens.See image below.
I have to close the window and open a new one to get the buttons to work, but the address bar does not return.
I am running OS 10.6.8.
Any suggestions?

Sorry, can't view the image. Try reformatting to JPG.
Re the toolbar. Since this issue started after the 5.1 update, could be a third party Safari add on that was compatible with the prior version of Safari but not 5.1 that's preventing the Toolbar to load correctly.
Read here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

DON'T HAVE A HELP TAB IN MY MENU BUTTON. CANT EVEN COPY A URL IN MY ADDRESS BAR OR REFRESH IT ?

how on earth can you help people when all you do is direct them to another page to click on something that doesn't help. this new version is awful . i cannot even put a url address in my address bar, nor can i refresh the address bar as it won't highlight at all. i keep going to all sorts of help pages and they are no help at all. i have used firefox for years and never had so much trouble with anything. the worse thing is your support and not being able to talk to any about anything. as it is i have to go all over just to find maybe an answer to this.i am using a background theme that i used before the new updated version and had no problems with it. if your themes are not compatible then why have them ??? the address bar problem is not present if i get rid of the theme and use the plain boring theme that you have . all i want to know is why this issue is happening with the theme i am using. and if possible it would be nice to get an answer in my email so i don't have to click on a dozen help pages trying to find it . thank you ..
edit by a moderator: if you want to be able to discuss the issue with someone, don't do it in a shouting format (all uppercase), as this is considered rude on the internet - therefore i have converted your text into normal characters. in addition i have removed your address from public display since you will be notified per mail once somebody replies to the thread anyway.

My address bar does not autocomplete. Running Windows XP and it was working but not now. How do I start the autocomplete?

My computer crashed and it has been restored. I am running Windows XP and I did not re-install Firefox Aurora after the computer was restored with new motherboard and HDs. All of my software works, but the autocomplete does not. Firefox remembers my username for logging in and my password. It is just the autocomplete. I have to completely type in the website name. When I open the History and Bookmarks window, there are no entries. The yellow star in the address bar also does not work. When I click on it, nothing happens.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.

How do I change the default search engine in the address bar?

I am trying to change the default search engine in the address bar to Scroogle SSL, I have tried editing about.config but it either goes to Google or on rare occasions it has opened to Scroogle SSL and the address bar shows https://ssl.scroogle.org/(+whatever was entered), while the main window shows a proxy error .
I have an idea that something needs to be added at the end of the URL in about.config to actually make it search.
Can anybody tell me what the specific settings would be to get this working?
I have Scroogle SSL in the search engine list but I want to remove the search box to save space.
Also I cannot get the search to open in a new tab even though browser.search.openintab is set to True.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, having tried both ways myself what you say is true but that is not the source of my confusion.
(In fact I discovered that when I set the same thing up in Opera10.53 everything up to the ? appears on one line in the setup and the Gw=%s on another.)
What I cannot understand is why, if I am using Scroogle SSl search it is opening the OpenDNS guide.
If I use my Scroogle SSL home page it opens a minimal Google search page, the same thing happens if I use the search box. I expected this would be the same as well or am I missing something?
OpenDNS is preferable to Google but not what I was looking for.
Since I started writing this I have just discovered that changing the keyword.URL does not affect this.
Earlier I recovered my system from an image which undid the changes that I had made to about.config, I have run searches both before and after I edited it again. Both times I finished up on OpenDNS?

Firefox doesn't let me copy the web address from the address bar using the context menu with second button in mouse or trackpad

Hello!
I write to report a problem I have with the new update v35 and v35.0.1 Firefox on address bar
With the new version 35 of Firefox on Mac OSX Yosemite, clicking directly with the right mouse button in the address bar to copy the web address, context menu NOT allowed to copy the link, it shaded in gray, inactive ... you have to click on another browser free zone before returning to click a second time and be able to copy the link from the context menu
I mean, with the first right click in the address bar context menu that appears don't allow me to copy the link directly, you have to click on another area and then clicking again with the right mouse button in the address bar to copy the web address (happens to all pages)
I tried to open Firefox with inactive complements and plugins, and reset Firefox to first time use (like the first install) and the problem is here again... With or without complements and plugins the problem is here
This happens before and then when I format my computer
Here I put a screenshot that explains the problem better than my words

The icons that show up when you right click in that image do not look like the default version of Firefox, even with the Spanish Dictionary/Language pack.</blockquote>
Hello
The icons in the screenshot is from Linux OS, because I don't know how to capture screen, and somebody in Linux OS made it to show the problem that I was talking about
I don't have any icon addons only have 2 plugins, quicktime (integrated in OS) and adobe Flash, updated both
Before I format my Mac, I upgraded Firefox to v35 and here came this error
Then I format my Mac after days, by subjects of hard disk space, etc... when I install Firefox 35 (new install) the problem was here again
I tried to Open Firefox with disabled Add-ons, and Reset Firefox to an install version, but the problem is here always

How to change the InfoView logo [Favicon] from the browsers address bar.

Hi All,
I am launching an Infoview in a new web browser from the netWeaver portal through a link.
The favicon for potal is changed on the portal server.
How I can change the InfoView logo[Favicon] from the browsers address bar?
If anybody knows where that image is located on the BOE server where I can replace the icon with my company icon?
Please advise!
Awaiting Reply!
Smita Thorat

Hi,
the icon has the name favicon.ico and can be found in the root folder of the Web AS /Portal.
Favicons are images of the size 16x16 or 32x32 pixel in the Icon format (image/x-icon) and files have an .ico extension.
You can either change the standard sap favicon directly on the WebAs server wich needs might be done after each support package.
Regards,
Kai
