I've got the following line of HTML on my web page: 

   <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"/>

it should display favicon.ico next to the address bar. It does this on IE and on Firefox when I test locally but not on Firefox when I test online. All files are in correct places but still no joy. Where did I screw up?
