favicon in Firefox

Pachat

I'm a new user and first, thanks for your great Test Tool.

I got it working easily.

One thing I'd like to solve, is that, when having Sahi started all the favicon in tabs and personal tollbar all become the $ ahi favicon.
Is there a way to see the genuine favicon for every site in FF 3.5.16 ?

Step to reproduce :
1°) Start Sahi
2°) Launch FF
3°) Click on a site of the personal toolbar
=> After 2 or 3 seconds, the favicon in the tab becomes $,
and the corresponding favicon in the toolbar either.

Hi Pachat,

It is just a visual indication that the page is coming through Sahi. We can remove that in the next build through a configurable property, but some of our users rely on it as a visual cue.

That would be great !

For the present, to recover the icons in FF toolbar I did the following :
- delete favicon.ico in the Sahi installation
- run FF with no proxy : going on every page that lost their icon made them come back
(those without a favicon.ico kept the Sahi icon).
- reactivating the Sahi proxy at least kept the icon of the personal toolbar (the tabs keeping showing a blank icon).

(Before that happen I was not aware how much I rely on these favicon)

The way I use Sahi, is the following :
- start_sahi.bat
- launch FF with proxy activated (for HTTP, but I kept SSL with no proxy).

I then do all my surfing (mail, business, development) in different tabs and a <capacity>1</capacity> threaded short testings in another tab of the very same instance of FF.

Is this the right way to go ?

When the tests will grow to long time sequences, is it necessary to have another instance of FF, or another browser or even another computer ? What are the best practices ?
