I'm fairly new to javascript so please forgive my errors. I want to
put a statement on a web page to let the user bookmark the page. I've
seen several different versions of this - but I can't make mine work
in IE. Here is the code:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function cknav(){
var IEstring = "<a
href='javascript:window.external.addFavorite('http ://la.fooweb.com','LA
Homepage')";
IEstring += "><\/a>" ;
// IEstring += ";' title='Add to Favorites '><\/a>" ;
// IEstring += "(location.href,document.title);' title='Add to
Favorites'>Favorites<\/a>" ;
var NSstring = "Click [Ctrl + D] ";
var OPstring = "Click [Ctrl + T]";
var NSOPstring = "by returning to the main page and "
var OTHstring = "Bookmark this page!"
var whichString = OTHstring ;
var agt = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
var app = navigator.appName.toLowerCase();
var ieAgent = agt.indexOf('msie');
var nsAgent = app.indexOf('netscape');
var opAgent = app.indexOf('opera');
// How do I get IE to execute this ?? it doesn't seem to do
anything.
if (ieAgent!= -1) { whichString = IEstring;
document.write(whichString);
alert(whichString) }
else if (nsAgent!= -1){ whichString += NSOPstring + NSstring;
alert(whichString) }
else if (opAgent!= -1){whichString += NSOPstring + OPstring;
alert(whichString) }
}
-->
