Try this, you need to put it inside your head element

<html>
  <head>
    <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="YOURICONPATH/icon.png">
    <title></title>

 </head>
</html>

    <link rel="icon" href="http://example.com/favicon.png">

Putting this inside your header section will set up a favicon at the top left of the tab on your website. Make sure to change the example picture to the image of your choice.

It's the head section. `header` is an HTML5 tag; putting it in there doesn't do anything. – Roddy of the Frozen Peas Apr 25 '21 at 02:14
