Question

i noticed that paypal displays a very different favicon, one that's not just a simple 16x16 icon and is lengthy? anyone can teach me?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I think you are refering to the green box that shows the PayPal logo followed by "PayPal, Inc. (US)".

If so, it is not a favicon, but a feature of Firefox 3 to show sites with extended validation (EV). See also http://news.cnet.com/8301-13554_3-9974672-33.html

OTHER TIPS

That is not a favicon, but the type of SSL certificate they use. It's an Extended Validation (EV) certificate, which intends to provide better identity verification.
