Create a WebClip Bookmark Icon

[macky801]

iPhone and iPod touch allow a user to save a WebClip bookmark to your site on their Home Screen.

To specify a bookmark icon for all pages of a web site, place a PNG image named "apple-touch-icon.png" at the root directory of your web server - similar to the "favicon.ico" for site icons.

To override the site bookmark icon on a specific web page, insert a

element similar to within the element of the page.

The bookmark icon dimensions should be 57x57 pixels. If the icon is a different size it will be scaled and cropped to fit.

Safari will automatically composite the icon with the standard "glassy" overlay so it looks like a built-in iPhone or iPod application.

easiest way to do it would be to create the image and name it apple-touch-icon.png preferably 57px X 57px and upload it to your site directory

I got the creating/saving part down. I am using WinSCP, what folder would I save it to ?

eg: root/var/ ??

Thanks !
