This icon is called Favicon, and its
Wikipedia article explains its general use. To use it with CMSimple you can simply add the appropriate element(s) to your template (see the template "responsivehtml" in recent CMSimple_XH versions), if that's actually necessary.

How do I change the little icon in the address bar (like the blimp in the MozillaZine address)?
I'm interested in putting in a little icon of my own, can anyone help?

Just as cmb answered:
1. prepare a gif or png file with e.g. 16x16px and save it in ico format as favicon.ico.
2. save it in the root of your website (where your main index.php is saved)
3. Edit your template and put
Code: Select all
<link href="./favicon.ico" rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" />
That's basically all. Enjoy.
