Hi ,
when you visit some web sites, they add some links to your favorite folder automatically,

anyone know how is that done ? could it be done in coldfusion ?


Thanks

 
Well... you can do it with Javascript... which you can call within a .cfm page... so in a round about way, you can do it in ColdFusion ;-)

Code:
window.external.AddFavorite(url, text_for_favorite_link);

the catch is it only works in Internet Explorer. I don't believe there's an equivilent for Netscape. Usually sites say "If you're running IE, click here to bookmark this site, otherwise press Ctrl-D on your keyboard" or whatever.
