is there a way to add a BOOKMARK ME button?

Well, if I had only read your post #6 instead of just skimming it, I would have seen we were using two different scripts

This is the script I have used successfully.

<script type="text/javascript">

/***********************************************
* Bookmark site script- &#169; Dynamic Drive DHTML code library (www.dynamicdrive.com)
* This notice MUST stay intact for legal use
* Visit Dynamic Drive at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code
***********************************************/

function bookmarksite(title, url){
if (document.all)
window.external.AddFavorite(url, title);
else if (window.sidebar)
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, "")
}

</script>

Try this in the header, with the button code given above in post #7 in the body.

a little frustration...

Bill:

I appreciate all the help. Everything I have tried gets an error and it is probably something obvious... The button code works. the script is where the error is occurring.

I am going to take a break from it today. will revisit it later. i now have it loaded on to a trial site: http://trials.actinic.com/trials/trial21473/

I will be moving it to prod this week...

thank you very much,

As always, for JavaScript problems, look at the page using Fierfox and use its Tools / JavaScript Console to get meaningful error messages.

Hi, this wont give you a button, but it will work with text or images(so you can crate an image button yourself). To try create a new brochure fragment page under home and cut and paste the code directly into the fragment(just as it is)

!!<<script type="text/javascript">

/***********************************************
* Bookmark site script- © Dynamic Drive DHTML code library (www.dynamicdrive.com)
* This notice MUST stay intact for legal use
* Visit Dynamic Drive at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code
***********************************************/

function bookmarksite(title, url){
if (document.all)
window.external.AddFavorite(url, title);
else if (window.sidebar)
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, "")
}

</script>>!!

!!<<a href="javascript:bookmarksite('DATARAX Storage Equipment Catalogue', 'http://www.datarax.co.uk')"><font color="Red" size="2">...Click here to bookmark us! </strong></a></font>>!!

Change the text in red to suit your own info.

Randy, my apologies - the opening quotes are missing from the onclick in the button code I posted, it should read

<BUTTON TYPE=button ID=Marker ONCLICK="javascript:bookmarksite('Egyptian Wonders', 'http://www.egyptianwonders.co.uk')">Add this site to your Bookmarks</BUTTON>

Success!

The Bookmark Me button is now functional. I wanted to put it in the Main template, but never could even get the button to appear unless I put the code in the desciption with the special caharacters to indicate instream html to actinic. Even then, it would just get error. I was able to get it to work in the Brochure template...

This will have to do for now...

Many thanks to you for providing me the answers. I really hope I can return the favor someday...

I wish you a great day followed by many more!

Sincerely,

Randy

Randy,

For the Brochure pages, you will have added the script and button code to Act_BrochurePrimary.html - to get the same effect on the catalog and product prices, make exactly the same changes to Act_Primary.html (ie, put the script and button code in the same place on both templates to keep things consistent for visitors).
