Hi Pete,

You have to include some JavaScript see the JavaScript resources at http://www.websunlimited.com/resources.asp or take a look at

Add this script where you want the hyperlink to appear:

<script>
if (navigator.appName.substring(0,9) == "Microsoft"){
document.write("<a href='" +
"javascript:window.external.addFavorite" +
"(document.location,document.title)'>" +
"Add to favorites.</a>")
}
</script>

This script works unmodified in any page. It gets the
current URL from the browser, and the link text from the
document title.

However, it only works in IE. Other browsers don't support
the window.external.addFavorite() method.
