Does anyone know the code I can place  
on a button in Flash to allow the user  
to add my website to their favorites???

Will it work in IE and Netscape???

Thanks =)

```auto
on (release) {
        getURL("java_script:window.external.AddFavorite('URL',TITLE')");
}

```

Just fill in the URL of your site and change “TITLE” to whatever you want to appear in the user’s favorite’s menu.

Make your button and put the actions in it: The actions are in the text file because you cant type in javascript commands on this board (filtered out).

The first part is the URL (‘[freddythunder.com](http://freddythunder.com)’)  
and the second part is the title that will be recorded in the favorites list (‘the best website ever’)  
Hope that helps!
