I think there was a homepage with a "toggle" button, the toggle button redirected to /toggle. site.com/toggle then got added to his favorites by safari. So it wasn't loading the site with the button, but the site that the button redirects to.

Correct. Site now has a form and a button. /toggle now responds only to POSTs, and redirects back to /.
