I'm not worried about all the devices, just modern browsers - Chrome, FF, Safari, IE.

I read

How to set-up a favicon?

and the two ways I see for just browsers are:

<link rel='shortcut icon' type='image/x-icon' href='_images/favicon.ico'/>

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="_imagers/favicon.ico">

Previously I had been using JavaScript to dynamically load my favicon but Chrome will hit my server for the default location producing an error ...

And I don't want it doing this ...

so I'm going to do it the standard HTML way.

Blog by Daniel Schwarz has explained the proper way to use the favicon for most of the modern web browser. I refer to this article. Hope this might help you.

Just put the favicon.ico file in the site's source folder and Browsers will know how to get it, and browsers aren't the only thing that will request favicon's - many crawlers and other applications do too.
