Code:

<!-- ONE STEP TO INSTALL SET HOMEPAGE LINK:

<BODY>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">




<!-- Begin
// If it's Internet Explorer, use automatic link
// Be sure to change the "http://www.YourWebSiteHere.com\"
// to the URL you want them to bookmark.
if (document.all){
  document.write('<A HREF="javascript:history.go(0);" onClick="this.style.behavior=\'url(#default#homepage)\';this.setHomePage(\'http://www.YourWebSiteHere.com\');">');
  document.write('<font size="5" color=6699FF face=arial>Click Here to Make My Web Page Your Homepage</font></a>');
}

// If it's Netscape 6, tell user to drag link onto Home button
// Be sure to change the "http://www.YourWebSiteHere.com\"
// to the URL you want them to bookmark.
else if (document.getElementById){
  document.write('Drag this link onto your Home button to make this your Home Page.');
}

// If it's Netscape 4 or lower, give instructions to set Home Page
else if (document.layers){
  document.write('Make this site your home page:
- Go to Preferences in the Edit Menu.
- Choose Navigator from the list on the left.
- Click on the "Use Current Page" button.');
}

// If it's any other browser, for which I don't know the specifications of home paging, display instructions
else {
  document.write('Make this site your home page:
- Go to Preferences in the Edit Menu.
- Choose Navigator from the list on the left.
- Click on the "Use Current Page" button.');
}
//  End -->
</script>

Allow the visitor to set your site as their homepage with a link. This script works best in Internet Explorer, but also displays the appropriate information based on browser type.
