Bookmark when closing browser.

I am looking for a script that will promt the user to bookmark my site when they try to close the browser. I have seen them in the past I cant seem to find one now that I need it.

I know a javascript code which will prompt the user to bookmark your page:

You will need to change the following to your own details

var url="ENTER YOUR WEBSITE ADDRESS HERE";
var title="ENTER A TITLE FOR YOUR SITE HERE";

Here's the code:

I also know that you can make something happen when the page is closed using:

I also know that if you save your javascript as a .js file using notepad (take out the if you do this though) you can use:

That's all I know, hope someone else knows the rest.

By the time the onunload triggers the person is no longer on your page to be able to bookmark it.

You could have a pop-up window with that link on it which will bookmark your page when clicked, but this window will be blocked if the user has a pop-up blocker installed - which most people will.

Unless someone knows how to make a pop-up window which will not be blocked, then the only other way is probably to put a link on your homepage using the above script again.
