Adding your Site to a Users Desktop as a shortcut! Can it be done?

[mcmcom]

Is there a way to put some sort of link on my website that will allow a user to click it and have my Website link added to their desktop AS A SHORTCUT? Even Add it to favourites then add a shortcut to the desktop?

Can this be accessed through the browser without any kind of
SpyWare or anything?

Thanks

I don't think this is possible. It would be a big security hole if it does exists :)

You can use a Java script to add your web site as a favorite.


function pref(){
if (document.all) window.external.AddFavorite("http://www.YourDomain.com/","YourDomain.com - Enter a description here")
}

use this in your HTML code:

<A href="javascript:pref()"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: x-small; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Save as Favorite</FONT></A>
