Miscellaneous Free JavaScripts
Here are various javascripts that you will find very useful for your web site. There are javascripts to break your pages out of frames, enable visitors to bookmark your site, view the source code of a page and there is even a basic HTML editor.
Page Bookmark
Allows visitors to bookmark your page with the push of a button. Netscape users will get a pop-up window telling them to press CTRL-C while the MSIE users will get to actually bookmark the page with the push of a button. In addition, the pop-up windows will not appear for another 14 days after the user initially sees it. This is a great script to put on your page and will attract many more repeat visitors to your page. The only downside is that the script is a little large.

Report it ( will open in new window )Page cache buster
Netscape and IE 5 all use page caching to some degree to allow pages to load faster after the first visit. This is great, for the most part. However, there maybe some pages you have that changes often (like daily)...in order to ensure that your surfers are always viewing the most recent copy of the page, use the below code. It turns off page-caching for that particular page, so people will never miss an important update to your site!
