[bluerovers]

hey all

im trying too add a bookmark me button on my page and fell i am lost

i downloaded the following code from a website

bookmark(address,sitename) {
if (window.sidebar) {
window.sidebar.addPanel(sitename, address,"");
} else if( document.all ) {
window.external.AddFavorite(address, sitename);
} else if( window.opera && window.print ) {
return true;
}
}

it also says to place this in the html header

script type="text/javascript" src="addToFavorites.js"></script>

and this in the body

<a href="#" onclick="bookmark('http://javascript.internet.com/','JavaScript Source')">Bookmark our site!</a>

i know it sounds bumb but not overly sure how to do this?

Re: adding a book mark

Hi, try this.

<a href="#" onclick="bookmark('http://javascript.internet.com/','JavaScript Source')"><font color="green">Bookmark our site!</font></a>

You can change the green part to a #000000 style if you want.

Re: adding a book mark

Hey this worked excellent for my site on internet explorer. However when I try to use it in mozilla firefox, I can save the bookmark but when I open it, it opens it in the side bar instead of the main part of the browser. Any suggestions? I'd greatly appreciate it, I've been trying to fix this for hours.
