The <command>IconHeight</command> and <command>IconWidth</command> parameters require the server to include HTML <command>HEIGHT</command> and <command>WIDTH</command> tags for the icons in server generated webpages. The <command>IconsAreLinks</command> parameter combines the graphical icon with the HTML link anchor, which contains the URL link target.
