Bookmark Button

[Jimmy420]

Hi, i'm new to java and need some help. I have the script below and i am trying to make it so when you click on a button it will add the website to your favorites. Could someone give me a hand with this?

function CreateBookmarkLink() {
title = document.title;
url = window.location.href;
if (window.sidebar) { // Mozilla Firefox Bookmark
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url,"http://www.desperadosofgaming.com/");
} else if( window.external ) { // IE Favorite
window.external.AddFavorite( url, title); }
else if(window.opera && window.print) { // Opera Hotlist
return true; }
}

Thanks,
Jimmy

<input type = "button" name = "mybutton" id = "mybutton" value = "Click here to bookmark this page" onclick = "CreateBookmarkLink()">

You should note that Java and Javascript are entirely different programming languages, in spite of the confusingly similar names.

Thank you! Also didn't know they were different, good tip.
In firefox when i add it to my bookmarks with the button, when i open it up it opens up in a sidebar and not the full window. How can i fix this?

I don't use Firefox, but try this (using unescape):-

if (window.sidebar) // firefox
{
window.sidebar.addPanel(unescape(title), unescape(url), "http://www.desperadosofgaming.com/");
}
