Question

window.location.href does not work to save the current web page url as a bookmark. Does anyone perhaps know why?

Thanks

This code works in Firefox as well as IE.

function CreateBookmarkLink() {

 title = "Webpage Title"; 
 //or title = document.title

 url = "Webpage URL";
 //or url = location.href

if (window.sidebar) { // Mozilla Firefox Bookmark
    window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url,"");
} else if( window.external ) { // IE Favorite
    window.external.AddFavorite( url, title); }

}
