Add favicon to JSF project and reference it in <link>

How do I add a favicon to a JSF project and reference it in <link> element?

I tried as below:

<h:head>
    <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="images/favicon.ico"/>
    ...
</h:head>

Howe开发者_C百科ver, it didn't show any favicon.


A relative href is relative to the current request URI. Likely it resolved to an invalid URL. You need to prepend with the context path so that it becomes relative to the domain root.

Also, the rel has better to be shortcut icon to get it to work in older browsers too.

In case of using an .ico file, you also need to ensure that it's a real .ico file and not some .bmp renamed to .ico. You can generate one here based on several image formats. You can however also just use a .png or .gif file.

All in all, provided that the file is located in

WebContent
 |-- images
 |    `-- favicon.ico
 :

then this should do it:

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="#{request.contextPath}/images/favicon.ico"/>

If you've however placed it as a JSF resource in the /resources folder as follows

WebContent
 |-- resources
 |    `-- images
 |         `-- favicon.ico
 :

which would make it accessible by <h:graphicImage name="images/favicon.ico">, then this should do it:

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="#{resource['images/favicon.ico']}"/>

I used the following and it works in both IE and Chrome

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="#{resource['images/favicon.ico']}" type="image/x-icon" />   


Since JSF uses the resources as a container for storing the image file folder, you can do the following;

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="#{request.contextPath}/resources/images/favicon.ico"/>


As a side note, I always include both of these when referencing a favicon:

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="https://a.staticimageserver.com/img/favicon.ico" />
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="https://a.staticimageserver.com/img/favicon.ico" />
