    You probably won't be able to see it until you close your browser and open it again. Mozilla caches the favicon and doesn't refresh it when you clear your regular cache.

      If your favicon.ico is in the web root, it should show up.

      Check localhost/favicon.ico
      If you see your icon it's working, and probably just a caching issue.

    Do you see your icon when you visit
    localhost / test / favicon.ico
    OR
    localhost / favicon.ico
    ?

    with your web browser?
