itran Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) The HTML Title Tag: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>The Title</title> </head> <body> </body> </html> There is a hook sign placed right in front of the title, when the website is loaded on the localhost - what does it stand for? I can see it right on the tab in Firefox. An Example: [Hook Sign] The Title Edited December 12, 2012 by itran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 What is a hook sign? Are you talking about the favicon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itran Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) It does occur next to the favicon, basically inbetween the favicon and the title. The term "hook sign" as in "check mark" symbol. Edited December 12, 2012 by itran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) FFS I can't find a single screenshot showing the icon. I think he's talking about the unlocked lock icon, probably about mixed content (the unsecure stuff on a secure page) or a certificate problem (like for a homemade cert). [edit] itran, for future reference, when you want help identifying something you see on your screen, it's a really good idea to take a screenshot and actually show the mysterious icon to us. Describing it doesn't always work and is always harder for us to understand than if we could look at a picture instead.

kicken Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Do you have any addons for firefox running? If so disable them and see if it goes away. I don't use firefox much anymore, but I can't recall ever seeing anything like that when I did. Leads me to believe it's an addon you have that is putting it there.
