    I don't think is possible to do that, the user must first agree to setting your site as the homepage first, you can however prompt the user when it first visits your site, to set it as homepage.

    You cannot do it this way, its impossible.The use most accept the prompt first before setting your site as homepage.

    you cannot! You must need to ask user to click a link or prompt a yes or no dialogue box for this.

    Even if it was possible, I would HIGHLY advise against pulling that type of sleazeball asshat nonsense -- all you are going to do is piss people off!

    Hi,

    New here i do agree with deathshadow if you do find a way all your going to do is drive away traffic from your site and your site might or will be marked as lets say a spam or a melicouse site. If you want that go ahead.
