    It's called a "favicon(.ico)". Google it. For some browsers (mostly mobile devices such as iPads or iPhones) can make us of hi-res favicons. Here's a good [link](http://davidwalsh.name/retina-favicons) to help you out. – Bram Vanroy Nov 23 '13 at 12:16
  • @BramVanroy you didn't got the question :) OP is aware about the favicon, but he needs besides the address bar – Mr. Alien Nov 23 '13 at 12:20

The favicon where you want to show is not possible as Chrome AS WELL AS Firefox uses that to show whether the website uses HTTPS or not.

So short answer is you CANNOT DO THAT.

And if you want to simply add a favicon to your website, than you can refer the answer links shared by @Robin Green

If you want to put a favicon

Put this

<link href="img/favicon.ico" rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" />

on the head section of your page.

You will have something like this

<html>
<head>
<link href="img/favicon.ico" rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" />
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>Your Website</title>
</head>
