    The user wants to do that they can use the browser to do so, WASTING code on doing it or worse, simply doing it is intentionally blocked in most browsers due to abuse, and should NOT EVER be implemented on a website due to it pissing off users and making people think your entire site is one giant scam!

    It's not often that I am more brusque than ds, but …
    It's not your browser, it belongs to your visitor. Keep your damned hands off it.

    Go to the option and from there you can change your default home page on your browser.
