Title
Body
According to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), all .ico file falls under the MIME type image/vnd.microsoft.icon . ( Source ) E.g. <link rel="icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="favicon.ico" /> However, savvy internet guru, Paul Irish , claims this is wrong, and that it would actually be image/x-icon . ( Source ) E.g. <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico" /> I know you can get away with not including a "type" for .ico files, but if you were going to include one, which should it be? Are there actually any problems with serving it as official IANA type?
