Javascript add-to-bookmarks (Firefox, IE)

Published in: JavaScript 

There is no standard for this at all - this just looks for the hooks that exist in IE and gecko-type browsers. See also http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms535926(VS.85).aspx and http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:window.sidebar

Plain TextExpand 
  1. function addToBookmarks(url,title) {
  2.   if (window.external && window.external.AddFavorite) 
  3.     window.external.AddFavorite(url,title);   // IE4 and later
  4.   else if (window.sidebar && window.sidebar.addPanel)
  5.     window.sidebar.addPanel(title,url,'');    // Gecko/firefox
  6. }
  7.  
  8. //use e.g. like:
  9. addToBookmarks(window.document.location, window.document.title);
