It was thus said that the Great Thomas Karpiniec once stated:
Thanks for the comments all. Clearly there is no consensus whatsoever
on how favicons work so there is no right or wrong. It's interesting
to hear about the special casing in GLV-1.12556.
It's not that special of a special case. I just added the feature toserve up a single page:
handlers = { { path = "^/motd$", module = "GLV-1.handlers.file", file = "/etc/motd" }, ... }
In the above example, it's for serving up a page that might not live ina directory with the rest of the content. The "path" defines the pathportion of the URL to be matched, so for the favicon.ico, all I had to dowas:
handlers = { { path = "^/.*favicon.ico$", module = "GLV-1.handlers.file", file = "/path/to/favicon.ico" }, ... }
and made sure this was the first path checked.
