Yup, I was heading down this road. Code below is good, but you forgot the part
that goes in the <HEAD> section.
<script type="text/javascript">
/* Modified to support Opera */
function bookmarksite(title,url){
if (window.sidebar) // firefox
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, "");
else if(window.opera && window.print){ // opera
var elem = document.createElement('a');
elem.setAttribute('href',url);
elem.setAttribute('title',title);
elem.setAttribute('rel','sidebar');
elem.click();
}
else if(document.all)// ie
window.external.AddFavorite(url, title);
}
</script>
I've been using a View field and was getting odd behavior. Need to tweak.
Thanks!

I also found you can change your click here code.
Make it a Remedy button (shown as a URL) and an AL that does a Run process
javascript
javascript:bookmarksite('Sites Name', 'url');"
In pure HTML the link code is:
<a href="javascript:bookmarksite('Dynamic Drive',
'http://www.dynamicdrive.com')">Bookmark this site!</a>
And, if your site's title contains apostrophes, they need to be backslashed
when entered:
<a href="javascript:bookmarksite('Mike\'s Place',
'http://www.google.com')">Bookmark this site!</a>

I don't think there is an easy to stop a user from doing a bookmark.
Off the top of my head ... you can try doing the following:
Put a global field on each of your pages. Have the ASP page push a known value
to this field. You can then add a Window Open AL (shared on each page) that
runs some javascript to redirect to the ASP page if the global field does not
have the known value.

**
Good day, all.
I'm looking for input from the community as to what everyone else does to
prevent their customers from bookmarking resolved mid-tier pages.
We're updating our "submit a help ticket" web page. We have an ASP page that
grabs the logged in (Active Directory) user's ID, redirects to our MT page,
while prepopulating the MT page with their information. Generally, we only
want to share that ASP page. We can and will have it on various Help Desk web
pages within the company, but a lot of people will be receiving the new page
via e-mail. Once they click on it, they'll be on the MT page and if they try
to bookmark it, it will cause problems the next time they try to visit the
link. I've added text to the top of the screen that says, "Do not bookmark
this page; to save as a Favorite, right-click here and select Add To
Favorites." The word 'here' is hyperlinked to the ASP page. This, needless to
say, does not work well. For one thing, the Favorite by default wants to save
as the word 'here.' Also, people 1) don't read, 2) don't fully understand the
terminology, and 3) don't read.
I've dabbled with some JavaScript, but haven't hit upon the right combination
to make this clean. I've considered something with frames but ran away
screaming.
What does everyone else do?
Thanks!
