You can try this free online pop-up maker:
http://www.berm.co.nz/popupmaker/. Or you may want to download this free software that can help you make pop-ups: http://www.codelifter.com/pop5index.html. Either way simply follow the instructions and you can get your pop-up very quickly. |

I recomand you to use a javascript. You can find free scripts at http://javascript.internet.com
or you can use a the <body onload="..."> event. |

as wappi suggested you can use the onload="" in the BODY tag and then call the function from the javascript file to load, something like this:
CODE <body onload="popup()"> The above code calls the function from the Javascript file or if you have it embedded in the webpages. The below code is what you need to open the page in the popup, this can be pasted into an external file which contains all the javascript or embedded as i said previously. CODE function popup() { window.open("popuppage.html","Homepage","resizable=no,status=yes,scrollbars=yes,width=260,height=500"); } If you require any help or do not understand then ask  .

sorry, i'd actually recommend not using popups to display your welcome message because nowadays everyone is using some sort of popup blocker or have installed SP2.

i have to agree but some people have to learn these things by trial and error. People have to try new things and then get feed back on what is good or what might drive people away from their site. And having a pop-up which instantly loads the moment the page is opened is not a good idea, only for the reason that everyone will instantly close it, whether it contained important information or not. It is best to just have a text link saying 'make this your homepage'.

I'll have to agree with dissipate and overture. It does not make a site very attractive to the user if you do that. Why? its annoying and most other websites that are ... not so good sites like they promote spyware and adware use those kinds of schemes.
I would rahter just make a link that says "add this page to your favorites list!" or something like that. |

I think he wants to know the code to pop up the yes/no dialog box asking the user if he would like to set his page as there start/home page.
I will dig for the js code to do it. |

<body STYLE="behavior:url('#default#homePage')" ID=sID onLoad="sID.setHomePage('http://www.yoursitehere.com')">
Will pop up dialog box asking if you would like to set http://www.yoursitehere.com as your homepage. There is no standard so there are very few browsers it will work in. I don't think NS has ever had support. IE5 supported it but I am not sure if the syntax was the same. |

Here is code to make a link to add current page to favorites:
<a href="javascript:" onClick="window.external.AddFavorite(location.href, document.title);">add to favorites</a> |
