Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi All! I would like to know, how can i use flavicon in my cgi? I have tried this way (but it doesn't work): 
$q->start_html(-title=>'Végre van rendes fejlécem', -BGCOLOR=>'#efeffc
+' ,
-attachment=>'<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://localhost/favicon
+.ico">' ),

Thank you for all helping!

    -attachment=>? Where do you get that from? As per documentation, 
    $q->start_html(
    -head=>[ 
        $q->Link({
             -rel => 'SHORTCUT ICON',
             -href =>'http://www.capricorn.com/s2.html'
         }),
     ],
);

    You have it spelled favicon.ico in the code and flavicon.ico elsewhere, and I've never heard of <body attatchment= ...>; where did you see a reference to this kind of thing?

    Update: if you want to add a link tag to the head section, CGI's doc says to do it like this: 

      print start_html(-head=>Link({-rel=>'next',
                   -href=>'http://www.capricorn.com/s2.html'}));
