Add to favorites / Set as Homepage Block

[Gargoyle]

This goes in a Java/html box and adds the ability for your users to either add you to their favorites or set your site as their homepage.

You will OBVIOUSLY want to replace the URL that points to my site to your sites URL in ALL of the below instances where it occurs.

The Bookmark script was fetched from another post in here... Just not sure where...

Code: [Select]

<center>
<Script>
function ssbookmark(title, url){
if (document.all)
window.external.AddFavorite(url, title);
else if (window.sidebar)
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, "")
}
</script>
<a href="javascript:ssbookmark('SouthSideStreetCars.org', 'http://www.SouthSideStreetCars.org')"><b>Add South Side Street Cars to your list of favorite's</b></a>
<br><br>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

if (document.all){
  document.write('<A HREF="javascript:history.go(0);" onClick="this.style.behavior=\'url(#default#homepage)\';this.setHomePage(\'http://www.southsidestreetcars.org\');">');
  document.write('<B>Make South Side Street Cars Your Homepage</B></a>');
}

// If it's Netscape 6, tell user to drag link onto Home button
else if (document.getElementById){
  document.write('<a href="http://www.southsidestreetcars.org"><b>Drag this link onto your Home button to make South Side Street Cars your Home Page.</b></a>');
}

// If it's Netscape 4 or lower, give instructions to set Home Page
else if (document.layers){
  document.write('<b>Make this site your home page:</b><br>- Go to <b>Preferences</b> in the <B>Edit</B> Menu.<br>- Choose <b>Navigator</b> from the list on the left.<br>- Click on the <b>"Use Current Page"</b> button.');
}

// If it's any other browser, for which I don't know the specifications of home paging, display instructions
else {
  document.write('<b>Make South Side Street Cars your home page:</b><br>- Go to <b>Preferences</b> in the <B>Edit</B> Menu.<br>- Choose <b>Navigator</b> from the list on the left.<br>- Click on the <b>"Use Current Page"</b> button.');
}
//  End -->
</script></center>

That is similar but this also adds the ability to set the site as your homepage. I think I used the code from that post in the bookmark section though.

Or you might have pulled it from just about anywhere - that script is very standard.

I am noticing that your code above causes some themes to move out - the block created by this doesn't always render correctly.

I am looking at it to see what bugs might be worked out.

Thank you

The code is strait forward, it works good in a script block..

[miyagi]

Well this isnt much (the button graphics arent that great) but I made buttons instead of those long text lnks
