Bookmak this page - code?

admin · Jan 9, 2008

Can someone tell me how to include a link that bookmarks the page to favourites when clicked? 
 
Thanks 
 
GMS -UKHI Gms, 
 
see the following code. I am shure this will work 
 
<html> 
<head> 
 
<script language="Javascript"> 
var bookmarkurl="http://www.whatever.com/whichfavourite.html" 
var bookmarktitle="HTML Help Homepage" 
 
function addbookmark(){ 
if (document.all) 
window.external.AddFavorite(bookmarkurl,bookmarktitle) 
} 
</script> 
</head> 
 
<body> 
<script Language="JavaScript"> 
bookmark() 
function bookmark(){ 
var version = 0; 
if(navigator.userAgent.indexOf('AOL') !=-1); 
else 
document.write("<INPUT TYPE='button' VALUE='Bookmark Now!' onClick='addbookmark()'>"); 
} 
</SCRIPT> 
</body> 
</html> 
 
AMRUTA..Another example 
 
<html> 
<head> 
<title>test</title> 
</head> 
<body> 
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> 
function bookmark(url, description) 
{ 
 
netscape="Push OK and then Ctrl+D to add a bookmark" 
 
if (navigator.appName=='Microsoft Internet Explorer') 
{ 
window.external.AddFavorite(url, description); 
} 
else if (navigator.appName=='Netscape') 
{ 
alert(netscape); 
} 
} 
//--> 
</SCRIPT> 
<A HREF=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"javascript:bookmark('the URL','Name and description of site');">Link text or image.</A> 
</body> 
</html> 
 
Insert the link as needed. Change URL and description to what you want.Thanks Whkoh & amruta 
 
Both work fine 
 
appreciated 
 
GMS UKDoesn't Netscape support this kind of bookmarking, or are there scripts out there that do this?I don't think that NS supports JS bookmarking.yep very true, Netscape doesn't support it. You could always check dynamicdrive.com and see all the different pretty scripts.<a href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"javascript:window.external.AddFavorite('SITE URL','FAVORITES TITLE')"><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"IMAGE ADDRESS" width="117" height="20" border="0"></a> 
 
Where: 
Favorites Title is: The heading it will be called when added to favorites, for example, "A1 Javascripts" or "Bills Site". 
 
 
works for me.......and it's allot shorter!
