I want to get, requested website's favicon with PHP. I have been recommended using Google's favicon service but it is not functional. I want to do something on my own but don't know regex usage.
I found a class on Google that works on most cases but it has unacceptable error rate. You can have a look here: http://www.controlstyle.com/articles/programming/text/php-favicon/
Can somebody please help me about getting favicon using regex, please?

Right-click on the website and click the "View page info" option from the list. It will open up a dialog and click on the "Media" tab. In that tab you will see all the images including favicon.
To add a favicon to your website, either save your favicon image to the root directory of your webserver, or create a folder in the root directory called images, and save your favicon image in this folder. A common name for a favicon image is "favicon.ico".
A favicon is added in the <head> tag of a web page. The <head> tag is where all the so-called “meta” information goes. Meta information is details about the web page itself, such as the title of the page.
Use the S2 service provided by google. It is as simple as this
http://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=www.yourdomain.com
Scraping this would be much easier, that trying to do it yourself.
