Hi,<br>
<br>
It can be done with a custom .desktop file.<br>
<br>
To do it easily with the GUI :<br>
<ul>
<li>Go in Lubuntu Menu, right click on Firefox (or an other web
browser), and click on « Create a shortcut on the desktop » ;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Right click on your new shortcut, and choose « Shortcut Editor
» (I am not sure of the English name) ;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>In the dialog, go in the "Desktop Entry" tab, and modify the
command. For Firefox, I have « firefox %u » : you can modify it
by « firefox %u <a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com" target="_blank">"http://www.yourwebsite.com"</a> ».</li>
</ul>
<br>
In this dialog, you can also modify the icon, label, etc.<br>
<br>
I hope it can help,<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Pierre Gobin<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning,<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I work for a school board in Montreal and
we are finally shifting over to open source software for our
older computer labs using Lubuntu 14.04 instead of windows 7.
The performance between the two is incomparable and schools
are saving up to 15 000$ by converting to Lubuntu instead of
purchasing new hardware.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our teachers have been working with us on
this and one <b>big request</b> is to put shortcut to web
sites on the desktop. I thought this would be a simple request
but I am unable to find any information on how to do this. Can
anyone help?<u></u><u></u></p>
