We all know that in most modern browsers, you can use the short key Ctrl + D to add a website URL to the favorite. For example, in Microsoft Edge Browser, Ctrl+D yields the following dialog on the right top corner of the page.
add-to-favorite-ctrl-d
We can do this via the following Javascript function, which detects different browser and show a message if it is not supporrted in the browser.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 | var AddToFavorite = function(url, title) { var ua = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase(); if (ua.indexOf("msie 8") > -1) { external.AddToFavoritesBar(url, title, ''); } else { try { window.external.addFavorite(url, title); } catch (e) { try { window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, ''); } catch (e) { alert("Please try shortcut Ctrl+D to add to favorite"); } } } return false; } |
var AddToFavorite = function(url, title) {
var ua = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
if (ua.indexOf("msie 8") > -1) {
external.AddToFavoritesBar(url, title, '');
} else {
try {
window.external.addFavorite(url, title);
} catch (e) {
try {
window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, '');
} catch (e) {
alert("Please try shortcut Ctrl+D to add to favorite");
}
}
}
return false;

Now, let’s do this via the demo, include the following JS:
1 | <script async src='https://helloacm.com/js/addtofavorite.js'></script> |
<script async src='https://helloacm.com/js/addtofavorite.js'></script>
Create a button and test it!
Add the following code to invoke the function at the button’s onclick event.
1 | AddToFavorite("https://helloacm.com", "The Computing & Technology"); |
AddToFavorite("https://helloacm.com", "The Computing & Technology");–EOF (The Ultimate Computing & Technology Blog) —
