Hi Supra,

If I understand you correctly you need to specify an icon in your web page to get the icon in the address box.

<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://www.mydomain.com/myicon.ico">

If you want to retrieve this icon to put into a combobox of your own, you need to retrieve the file using the link specified in the source, then use an ownerdraw mode to draw the icon and the text.

FireFox uses this line to specify its icon

<link rel="icon" href="http://www.mozilla.org/images/mozilla-16.png" type="image/png">
 
u absolutely. I have one question ...what about www.playboy.com.....how
will u know which icon?

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/tools/css/universal.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="tools/css/homepage.css" type="text/css" />

regards,
