Hello,

I would like to show a message (eventually with redirection) at home page loading time, that suggests using Firefox for better view experience. Something like this.

Would you like to view lisanuna.com

in Firefox (recommended)     
          
YES    -     NO


Thank you!

I think you have your terms confused. Your home page is the website that you have set on your computer that opens when you open your browser. I'm assuming you mean you want this message on your website so that when visitors visit your website they have the option to use Firefox, correct?

If that's the case, that's too advanced for this forum, but there are other, web developer forums that can help you with displaying a message (note that the most you can do is send users to download Firefox, you can't open a page in a different browser from your website). One such website is the Firefox Affiliates program, https://affiliates.mozilla.org

Or at least Is it possible to add a link on my home page that reloads the home page but using Firefox instead of the current browser? Sorry for the messy aspect of the message above ... Asterisks have turned into bullets!

Hi Tyler,

I would like it to just popup when my homepage loads. If the user accepts, then my website is reopened using Firefox instead of the current browser.
