The following script does exactly that, you insert the js code into a file that’s included in the header and you call it via link or any other clickable element.

The JS Code:

function CreateBookmarkLink(){
title = “St. George Utah Real Estate”;
url = “http://www.stgeorge-real-estate.com/”;

if (window.sidebar) { // Mozilla Firefox Bookmark
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url,”");
} else if( window.external ) { // IE Favorite
window.external.AddFavorite( url, title);
} else if(window.opera && window.print) { // Opera Hotlist
return true;
}
}

Then calling it with a link would be like:

<a href=”#” onclick=”CreateBookmarkLink()”>Bookmark Page</a>

or a button:

<input type=”button” onclick=”CreateBookmarkLink()” value=”Bookmark Page” />

And that is how you can use javascript to help a viewer to add bookmarks. Their are a few browsers that have issues with with adding bookmarks via javascript, like safari does support it at all and firefox adds bookmarks that open in the sidebar by default.
