Hi, Just started using web.py, wrote my first web service in less than 10 lines, so THANK YOU!
My question is about the favicon.ico file. I built the web app from the tutorial, and run it directly from Python using the web.py built- in web server. Every time I access the web service from a browser (Chrome on Mac), I see in the logs a GET request for the URL I typed in, but also see a GET request for /favicon.ico, to which my server responds with a 404 Not Found error. It's not a problem, but it is an annoyance. When I deploy this to Apache, I will get an extra line in my error logs every time someone visits from a browser. I know this is a browser-specific issue (trying to find the icon to put in the address bar), so not a big deal if requests are coming directly from web apps. And I'm sure I could come up with some image and install a favicon.ico somewhere and get web.py to serve it up. But I'm just wondering if there is some way that web.py can "ignore" these requests, or rather, not result in so many 404 errors in my logs? E.g. some sort of built-in/default url mapping to some blank .ico data that comes with web.py, or something like that?
