You could do that with a script that runs on window.onunload, assuming the visitor's browser allows scripts to add bookmarks.

I don't have a script handy to do that, though.

Cordially, David

ok, here you go.

The Javascript code, add this to the page you want to on close warn about bookmarking the site. ok!

place this code before you body tag, in the header.

&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
function bookmarksite(title,url){
if (window.sidebar)
	window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url, "");
else if(window.opera && window.print){
	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);
}
&lt;/script&gt;

then add this to your body tag:

onUnload="javascript:bookmarksite('YOURWEBSITETITLE', 'YOURWEBSITEURL')"'

so your body tag should look like this;

<body onUnload="javascript:bookmarksite('YOURWEBSITETITLE', 'YOURWEBSITEURL')">'
