hi sh0e,
thanks for commenting my question. but.......
do you thing this will be answer, how did you thing like this..

its a simple fact , catch will be executed only when some exception arises, but it the try statement it asks for to set as home page or not.. then how come the exception will arise. only two possiblities.. yes or no.

experts kindly help me. please

sh0e

If there is an error, such as lack of permissions, try catch would catch it.

alert(document.body.isHomePage('http://searchmore.in'));
