Making MY site visitors browsers Home Page

I see facilities on internet to add a site to the visitors browsers
Favorites.

I think I have seen such a facility to let a visitor click on something that
will make My Web site the home page for HIS broswer.

Is this possible?

How would I set that up? Can anyone point me to an example?

Vistors know how to bookmark a site. No need for anything else.

It ISNT bookmarking that I am interesrted in!

It is providing a facility on my web site to allow visitors to quickly
establish MY WEB SITE as the web site that their browser automatically opens
up when the access it or ask for HOME.

I expect that there are some visitos who would use this Facility.

I remember seeing it somewhere on Internet. Does anyone know where there is
an example of this, or could lead me to a resource for this?

How the hell do they know how to book marks a site when they can even
figure out how to close a window?

Here is some code that will work on 80% of your visitors:

<!-- ONE STEP TO INSTALL BOOKMARK US:

1. Copy the coding into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<!-- STEP ONE: Paste this code into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- This script and many more are available free online at -->
<!-- The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com -->

<!-- Begin
if ((navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") &&
(parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 4) &&
(navigator.appVersion.indexOf("AOL") == -1)) {

var url="http://www.javascriptsource.com";
var title="The JavaScript Source";

document.write('<A HREF="javascript:window.ext');
document.write('ernal.AddFavorite(url,title);" ');
document.write('onMouseOver=" window.status=');
document.write("'Add our site to your favorites!'; return true ");
document.write('"onMouseOut=" window.status=');
document.write("' '; return true ");
document.write('">Add our site to your favorites!</a>');
}
else {
var msg = "Don't forget to bookmark us!";
if(navigator.appName == "Netscape") msg += " (CTRL-D)";
document.write(msg);
}

// End -->
</script>

Sorry, here is the right code (mind you this does not work in all
browsers)

<!-- ONE STEP TO INSTALL SET HOME PAGE:

1. Copy the coding into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<!-- STEP ONE: Paste this code into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<BODY>

<!-- This script and many more are available free online at -->
<!-- The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com -->

<!-- Original: wsabstract.com -->

<!--[if IE]>
<a HREF onClick="this.style.behavior='url
(#default#homepage)';this.setHomePage
('http://www.javascriptsource.com');"><img src="house.gif"> Click here
to make this your default homepage!</a>
<![endif]-->

Hope that helped.

Anyone who needs a script to put their URL in others' favorites is suffering
from a inferior complex.

If it's good, the user will bookmark it.

Your right it is crap, and I knew the OP would be told that many many
times. So I was only giving the OP what they asked for. They can take
it, and combined with the other posts and make a decision.

You gave some Javascript code to bookmark a page. This isn't want the OP
asked for. Read the original post again if you thought it was.
