Hello,

I need help putting together a BookMark text or image function that is compatible in all browsers. IE, Netscape, Firefox, Opera, etc.

I have one for IE but in Netscape it shows up funky.

Is there a bookmark function that works for all browser types?

Thank you for your assistance.

As far as I know, automatic bookmarking is only possible in Internet Explorer. The best you can do is:

1. Sniff for the browser
2. IF the browser is IE, write a link to launch the bookmark script
3. ELSE, write some reminder text into the page

I think I will solve this problem by creating a bookmark.html page with instructions on how to bookmark in different browsers.

I've already wrote it all out but I still don't know how to bookmark in FireFox - never having downloaded it.

Any clues?
