New Firefox has no icon?
Petty question to be sure, but....
I finally got Firefox. There is a desktop icon for it, but the actual window for the program just has the Microsoft Flag icon in the upper lefthand corner. Why no Firefox logo? Makes any browser window in my task tray look like a mistake. Is there a simple way to fix this?

I assume you are using Windows 98? Check out Firefox Windows 98 Icon Fix on mozdev.org. There's also a proposed patch that might make it into 1.0.4 and/or 1.1, hopefully; it's a lame bug.

Ok, I figured it out. Here's what you do:
Go to this website: http://iconpacks.mozdev.org/packs/fi...win98-fix.html Click "Restore Firefox Icons" and save it to your desktop. Open Firefox and make it so it doesn't take up the whole screen. Drag the file you downloaded onto the Firefox window and say "install" Restart Firefox. Fixed!

Change the window icon
You can change Firefox's default window icon to any icon you want, by following these steps: 1. Go to the folder you installed Firefox in (e.g. C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) and then go to the subfolder chrome. 2. While in chrome, create a new subfolder called icons, then go to that folder and create yet another subfolder called default. The full path to this folder could be C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\chrome\icons\default\. 3. Choose the icon you want to use (on Windows use .ico files, on Linux use .xpm files) and then place it in this folder and rename it to main-window.[ext], e.g. main-window.ico on Windows and main-window.xpm on Linux. In addition to the main window, you can also change the icon on the Bookmark Manager and JavaScript Console. The icon names are bookmark-window.[ext] and jsconsoleWindow.[ext], respectively. After this is done, restart Firefox and you should be able to see your chosen icon in the title of the browser windows. Google "firefox icon file" Last edited by questone; 05-03-2005 at 04:32 PM.. |
