Q: What this does?
A: It adds a "Bookmark Us" link in your navbar or your footer.


This code is a free source from DynamicDrive.com. Users are NOT allowed to remove the copyrights.

How to install:

In the header template place this at the end of the template:

<script type="text/javascript">

/***********************************************
* Bookmark site script- ? Dynamic Drive DHTML code library (www.dynamicdrive.com)
* This notice MUST stay intact for legal use
* Visit Dynamic Drive at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code
***********************************************/

/* 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>

Now, for the navbar version, search the navbar template for:

PHP Code:

    <if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
        <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="register.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[register]</a></td>
    </if> 


After that, add:

PHP Code:

        <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="javascript:bookmarksite('$vboptions[bbtitle]', '$vboptions[bburl]')">Bookmark Us!</a></td> 


For the footer version, search the footer template for:

PHP Code:

                <if condition="$show['contactus']"><a href="$vboptions[contactuslink]" rel="nofollow" accesskey="9">$vbphrase[contact_us]</a> -</if> 


Above that, add:

PHP Code:

                <a href="javascript:bookmarksite('$vboptions[bbtitle]', '$vboptions[bburl]')">Bookmark Us!</a> - 


That's about it... tested with Firefox and IE6.

Yes, I'm using the default skin...

[Magnumutz]

Then it'll auto align itself there... on the right side, just like in the screenshot.

[youradhere4222]

Yes, but I'm pretty sure I asked how to align it on the left side...

[Magnumutz]

Oh, my bad
I tried aligning it on the left side, right after the Style and Language selector... but it looks real ugly, the whole text breaks down like this:

Bookmark
Us!!
