I want to make a link to add something to favorits. I am using the following code:

<a href="Javascript:window.external.AddFavorite(location.href,document.title)"><img srcxxx.gif" border="0"></a>

It works in IE, but wont add in the AOL browser. Does anyone know the code to make it work in AOL?

AOL uses Mozilla nowadays, right?
I've seen scripts that invoke some Java class (after prompting the user about possible security risks) that adds a page to the bookmarks file. AFAIK none of those scripts works in all versions of Netscape / Mozilla / AOL.

My suggestion: either forget the whole thing, or just ask your visitors to press Ctrl-D.

I never use this, but a client is insisting on it. Anyone know of anything else that would work cross-browser?
