Is there any way I can detect when my page has been set as the user’s homepage in their browser?
I’m most interested in something in javascript, but I’d be happy to hear about other approaches as well.
Edit: I’m not looking for anything sneaky. I’m wondering if there is anything that is explicitly allowed through the browsers to find out this information.
Mozilla/Firefox has a
window.home()method which loads the user’s home page. This method could be used (in an iframe, maybe) combined with server access logging, to see if the site’s home page is instantly requested loaded by the current user.However, other browsers don’t seem to support this javascript method.
