how do I add a link in my website for customers to add it to their favorites
list
in their browser..
 
Joe I have very basic understanding of this stuff. How do I insert this into
my website/ as a hyperlink or what.
 
Hi Ray,

It's mostly a question of copy and paste. You will need to switch your page
into HTML view..and you should probably first copy the script into
Notepad..and then from Notepad into your page (in HTML view) The
instructions though should pretty much tell you what you need to do! :-)

What do I put on the page where I want this to show up. As I said i'm not to
swift at this.
 
Ray,
I am not sure what code you were wanting to add.

However, I found that this code works fine
<!--[if gte IE 4]>
<a href="javascript:window.external.AddFavorite
('http://tandcl.homemail.com.au',top.document.title)">
Add our site to your favorites!</a><br>
<![endif]-->

You use the HTML tab ( I read that in FP2003 this is called Code, but
whatever!) and paste the above code into the code that appears there,
anywhere between <body> and </body>.

I am not sure whether the conditional comment works in other than IE, but
remove it if you like. (These are the lines of code: <!--[if gte IE 4]> and
<![endif]-->)

I hard coded my URL into the statement, but picked up the title from the top
page (with top.document.title)

I will give it a try.
