[SOLVED] favicon?

Hi all,
I'm using template nine and would like to add a favicon. It does not seem to work when I add <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"
type="image/x-icon" /> to the head section, just above <!--begin of terms...

The favicon.ico file is in the main folder next to the index page on the server.

Thanks

Mike
