Bookmark a link from firefox, IE, Mozilla

I want to allow a user to bookmark a page from the login page (i.e. where they want to be, not where they actually are.)

Does anyone know of a script that will work in the main browsers and can provide a link which they can click on to (at least initiate) bookmarking?

+1  A: 

Maybe this link can help you out, it claims to be cross-browser compatible.

Not bad, but it doesn't work on Chrome which although I didn't specifically mention it, is certainly becoming a big player.

I'm afraid you're out of luck with chrome. They don't seem to be exposing JavaScript API to add a bookmark. Check this similar question too: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/992844/add-to-browser-favourites-bookmarks-from-javascript-but-for-all-browsers-mine-do
