Strange Template Behaviour

[ROGM]

I have just put "<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"
type="image/x-icon" />" in my index.dwt, saved it and D8 has updated my child
page to "<link rel="shortcut icon" href="Templates/favicon.ico"
type="image/x-icon" /> directing the image source to the templates folder!

How do I stop this behaviour. I've had this before. I can't change it there
because it's not an editable region. Thanks

It's doing what you told it to do, by this link -

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"

which suggests that the favicon.ico file *is* in the templates folder. All
links in your template must be relative to the template, relative to the
root of the site, or absolute. This one is relative to the template, and it
says that the favicon is in the same folder. I suspect you manually entered
the code and were thinking about the location where you would save the child
page. Don't do that....
