Answer 1

Only in IE:

<a href="javascript:window.external.AddFavorite('http://mysite.com', 'My Site')">Bookmark This Site</a>

In firefox and IE:

function addBookmark(title, url) {
        if (window.sidebar) { // firefox
              window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url,"");
        } else if( document.all ) { //MSIE
                window.external.AddFavorite( url, title);
        } else {
               alert("Sorry, your browser doesn't support this");
        }
}

<a href="javascript:addBookmark('My Site','http://www.mysite.com')>Add bookmark</a>
