Edit Question
Title
Body
As you probably know, iPhone applications can register a custom URL scheme handler, ala "myapp:" and these can be used for links in a page viewed in Safari. I'd like to automatically launch my application from a specific page if the visitor has the app installed. If the app's not installed, I'll just show them the current mobile-optimized view of the page. How can I do this detection? Google searches have been fruitless. Also, to be tricky, I've tried doing something like this to no avail: var image = new Image(); image.onerror = function(e){ alert("bummer"); } image.onload = function(e){ alert('success!'); } image.src = 'myapp://something=meaningful'; Has anyone come across a way to do application detection?
