Is there a way to pop up 'Add Bookmark' window in Firefox when clicking on a "Bookmark this page" link. Like on the bottom of this page, but which would work also in Firefox?
Sorry, no. Firefox (and the most of other browsers) doesn't allow viewing sites to intervene so hard.
But it does exist! Look at the http://www.sciencedaily.com up, just below the logo "Bookmark site" link.
But it's not a bookmark function document.window('CTRL+D to bookmark'); Code (markup): You can also read about addPanel, but it's not the same.
between <head> and </head> <script type="text/javascript"> function bookmarksite(title, url){ if (document.all) window.external.AddFavorite(url, title); else if (window.sidebar) window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, "")} </script> then a clickable link between <body> and </body> <a href="javascript:bookmarksite('your choice of text', 'http://www.yourdomain.com')"> see http://www.pcdoctorsgroup.com/ hover | click Bookmark this page
This function in Firefox 1.5.0.1 makes a Bookmark, which opens in a sidebar instead of the main window. That is interesting, but rather useless. Does anybody know how this could be fixed?
Could use a fix for this myself... This http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/addbook.htm Causes it to open in the sidebar in FF.
If you want to do exactly what fusion.euromaterials.com does add this to your HTML <a href="javascript:bookmarksite('TITLE', 'URL')">Bookmark Us</a> but replace TITLE with a very short description of your site and replace URL with your site's url. All I did was copy the link from there site and add the HTML tag around it. I was pretty surprized to find it worked.
Seriously, you guys don't listen. There is no way to add your site to bookmarks on firefox. All you're doing is adding a sidebar panel, which is only going to annoy someone trying to use that bookmark. If you actually bother to read the javascript you'll see: window.sidebar.addPanel(document.title, location.href, ""); Code (markup): As you can see, it adds a SIDEBAR, not a BOOKMARK.
