As far as I know, this isn't possible, and could be a security hazard.
IE used to have a internal about URI scheme that does that, "about:home" which might still work in IE8.
- Out of interest I tested this. In Safari and Chrome the link goes to about:blank. In IE8 and Firefox it does nothing. Thanks for your help.

using javascript you can query the type of browser and return a hard coded link to the best guess of the browser's home page.

I'd recommend not. Users know how to get to their browser's homepage. There's a perfectly good mechanism in place for getting there :)

Not sure what you're asking. You can create an HTML link like so (replacing the domain/title with the one you want:
<a href="http:/somedomain.com/" title="A browser to surf the web with">Browser</a>
If that's not what you're asking, please give a little more detail.
- I mean create a link to whatever the users homepage in their browser is. I suppose it's not possible but I wanted to rule it out. Thanks for your help.
