Question

I am trying to make a default homepage script using the famous script for IE but I’m trying to add it in a jquery function.

So this works:

<a href="#" onClick="document.body.style.behavior='url(#default#homepage)';
  document.body.setHomePage('http://www.google.com');">
    Click here to make My Site your default homepage
  </a>

but this doesn’t:

<a href="#" onClick="">
    Click here to make My Site your default homepage
  </a>

$('a').click(function() {

 document.body.style.behavior='url(#default#homepage)';
  document.body.setHomePage('http://www.google.com');

});

What I’m I doing wrong?

EDIT: Please note the on click function doesnt work for IE9. IE6,7 and 8 it works.

Answer 1

With jQuery 1.7 use the .on() function:

$(document).ready(function() {

    $("a").on("click", function(event){
       document.body.style.behavior='url(#default#homepage)';
       document.body.setHomePage('http://www.google.com');

    });
});
