ThatScriptGuy 01-18-2006, 11:15 AM I am fairly certain that netscape/mozilla/firefox users still have to press Ctrl+D to bookmark a page. (although I could bwe mistaken)> kevin ZiDev 01-18-2006, 07:51 PM Control+D also works in MSIE. I haven't seen any javascript working in gecko to bookmark a page either. -- HW ThatScriptGuy 01-18-2006, 07:55 PM Well, yeah...Ctrl+D is the universal key combination to bookmark. It's just that in IE you've got the javascript that will add a bookmark, but I don't think that there is one for the other browsers. Burhan 01-19-2006, 02:30 AM A bookmarking script is a stupid idea. Just let the user add the bookmark as they would normally. Why do you want to write a script, that emulates a function perfectly provided by the user agent? This the same problem with those 'click here to go back' links, which are just javascript.history(-1); dumb idea. The user knows how to use their browser, let them use it; don't try to be cute :P Note that done correctly, navigation links do add to ease of user experience, but here I am specifically referring to those links that just navigate the history of the user agent. |
