Hey,

I was looking for the code to make those links that once clicked, will offer to have that web site as their browser's home page..

Usually seen on sites like this:

"Click here to make xxx.com your home page!"

Thanks!

Only IE support this feature!


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- // Begin
if (document.all){
document.write('<A HREF="#" onClick="this.style.behavior=\'url(#default#homepage)\';this.setHomePage(\'http://www.YourSite.com\');">');
document.write('Click Here to make this your homepage</a>');
}

else {
document.write('Press CTRL D to bookmark this page');
}

// End -->
</script>

I'm not speaking for Futuredood as I have no idea how he's going to use this feature...

but seriously... who da heck would want to set your homepage (the very first thing you would see if you open up your browser) to a site that has 3 popups and 11 popunders with a full screener with no close button?

I just don't like those who take advantage of things like that to try to accidentally get hits - I remember this times I accidentally selected yes instead of no - the next time I opened up IE, I saw the Niagara Falls of advertisements.

Just my personal grudge I guess ;)

Just like most things, some people actually use it for it's intended purpose while others -- gullible people beware!
