Maltese Cross URL Icon?

Post by iiipopes »

OK, why the "Cross Pattée" version of a Maltese Cross as the URL icon? I know all of us tuba players do consider ourselves worthy of knighthood, and a lot of us esteem German (Prussian) tubas highly, if not merely historical, but will anybody else?

Yes. Not all browsers support them, but the newer versions of IE do.

On my computer running the latest version of Windows the URL icon is what looks like a mouthpiece.

Mmm, I see not cross in Firefox or IE. Pretty weird.

Nor does the cross appear in Opera.

Indeed. I used to have the stylized mouthpiece logo come up, but that is not coming up. Time to check the browser and run the usual critter detectors. Thanks.

Internet Exploder Version 7.0.5730.11 looks fine!

Thanks. You're making me feel so "special." Now, where is that update on the critter detector?

Ran everything over the weekend. The correct icon is now back. But it was fun while it lasted - not!
