Description Rainer Bielefeld 2013-09-04 04:57:27 UTC
Steps how to reproduce:
1. Open <http://www.openoffice.org/>
2. In different browser tab open <http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Main_Page>
3. Compare! My results with Seamonkey 2.19
   Wiki: as expected AOO icon (blue circle with white seagulls) shown in
         Browser TAB and URL pane
   Website: no favicon

@Rainer:

I cannot reproduce that the www has no favicon. I can see the same like for wiki.

I tested with IE10, FF23.0.1, Seamonkey 2.16

AOO Wiki: always Icon visible.

AOO Website:
IE10: Favicon in Browser Tab and URL pand
FF: Favicon missing in URL pane
SM: Favicon missing in Browser Tab and in URL pane
Comment 3 Rainer Bielefeld 2013-09-05 15:04:06 UTC
Same FF problem (no favicon in URL pane) with FF 20.0 on Ubuntu 11
No problem at all with Epiphany 3.4.1 on Ubuntu 12

This might be (more or less) a settings problem in Browser. With help of 
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125439>
I found a solution, see comment 1 there. Modification has to be done in <about:config>, after I did favicons now are shown in Seamonkey (FF not tried).

But that does not mean that there is no problem, I think there is an inconsistence between wiki and www.openoffice.org. May be the favicon handling on AOO website follows an obsolete standard?
