I know that clickability offers a fee based service for adding a save this, print this, etc. type button onto your website. I am looking to add the functionality of at least bookmarking a website without paying for it.

Does anybody know a simple piece of HTML to do this or a freeware type applictaion.

Thanks in advance.

Hello thor, and welcome to the forms

HTML alone won't do the job - it takes some scripting. But it's pretty simple stuff - nothing you can't learn to do yourself. Try searching for the functions you want, plus the word "script" - use phrases like [bookmark script] and so on as your search.

Some of the functions you named, notably 'Add To Favorites', will be limited to IE on Windows, because only that browser is integrated tightly enough with the operating system to perform the function.

And if you run into questions, try our Javascript Forum, our Perl Forum and so on, depending on the technology you are using.

Thanks for the reply. I searched and found a pretty cool website for Java...its called: javascript.internet.com

After I used the code for the book marking function, I ended up spending about an hour and a half just checking out all of the other stuff on the site. This site has so many cool things to make your nce design (website) turn into a bad one, i.e. floating messages aroung your mouse pointer, fly's that walk accross the screen, etc.

Again, thanks for the help!
