In the html plage put:
head
LINK REL=SHORTCUT ICON
HREF=https://fsn3.frontstreetnetworks.com/favicon.ico;

Then make your self an icon   favicon.ico
must be called .ico

You can use Multimedia-Graphics-Icon Editor.
Or make one withg gimp then chrink it anc onvert it to .ico
there is a prgram to do the conversion (can't remember the name)
But you can't just rename it.

It has to be in the same directory as the page using it.

 OK, this might be a very stupid question, as well as off topic, but how
 do you place those tiny icons on navigation bars, just before the web

 be some reference to it on html codebut I couldn't find any.  Does it
 need a higher expertise than just writing html?

Easy to do. See http://www.favicon.com/ for details.

I believe it's a small icon file at the root of your www directory.
Do a search for that and give it a tried, I have never tried it
personally.

Strange I put one in

The first one works the second one doesn't
