Display a PNG favicon in CakePHP

Question

How do I show a PNG favicon in CakePHP? I'm currently using $this->Html->meta('icon') but it looks for .ico in the root. How do I change it so that it looks for .png?

Answer 1

$this->Html->meta('icon', $this->Html->url('/favicon.png'));

Answer 2

This would be better to use:

<?php
echo $this->Html->meta('favicon.ico','img/favicon.ico',array('type' => 'icon'));
?>
