favicon problem

hi, my favicon.ico file shows up just fine in the browser URL bar (Firefox) but not in the IE URL bar. It shows up in both the IE and Firefox favorites list also. But on the tab in Firefox it shows a blank page icon (not my favicon).

I tried to edit it through the favicon controls on the General admin page in tikiwiki but that didn't work (the file field is empty after I deleted the favicon.png file and will not save any new info) and the mime type is now empty (or defaulting itself back to png again). It is odd so I just gave up on that admin interface and edited the header.tpl directly.

I have tried putting

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.isergames.com/favicon.ico" /> <link rel="icon" href="http://www.isergames.com/favicon.ico" />


inside the head tag (and deleting the line about {if $favicon}blah{/if} since that feature didn't seem to be working.

So the favicon only works in the favorites folders and the Mozilla address bar, but not in the Mozilla tab or the IE address bar... anyone have any ideas why? I'm stumped. The site is www.isergames.com.Question
