I'd like to add a bookmark to a users Mobile Safari bookmarks when they install my iPhone application.
I don't want the user to have to do it manually, i'd like my iphone app to install the bookmark (actually a javascript based bookmark, e.g. javascript:)
Does anyone know of anyway to do this?
Not currently possible. The best I've seen is launching a page in mobile Safari with instructions on how to manually add the bookmark, or telling the user to add it on desktop Safari and sync the bookmark back to the iPhone.
This is not currently possible. If it's something you'd like to see, you should file an enhancement request with Apple.

Looks like you have the wrong tag of 'blackberry-webworks' for your post, sounds like a Java question?
In any event... BlackBerry WebWorks is essentially a webapp/webpage running natively on a device.
If you were to use WebWorks for development, you would simply create a webpage (html, css, javascript), and create a config.xml file which tells the SDK what your app is, what it wants access to do on the device, and request needed permissions, etc.
Once packaged, your app would run like any other app on the device. The cool thing about WebWorks is technically you can create a launcher for a website. It again would look like any other app, have it's own icon, and launch in it's own webview. You wouldn't have any of the browser address bars, or anything like that, so this may be the way to go.
If you want some 'Getting Started' info, check-out the HTML5 WebWorks webpage
I got the solution. It may help somebody
BrowserFieldConfig myBrowserFieldConfig = new BrowserFieldConfig();
myBrowserFieldConfig.setProperty(BrowserFieldConfig.NAVIGATION_MODE,BrowserFieldConfig.NAVIGATION_MODE_POINTER);
BrowserField browserField = new BrowserField(myBrowserFieldConfig);
add(browserField);
browserField.requestContent("http://www.google.co.in");
We are creating a non-native iPhone app that will eventually go through the phonegap process. But what I'm trying to do right now is: We have links that open in Twitter and LinkedIn, but when clicking them they open right in the same app window. Is there any way to force the links to open in the actual Safari app. It looks like this is possible with Objective-C, but I don't see how to do it with HTML. Thanks!

E.g. When you download pdf on the browser (PC) hit starts the Adobe acrobat..similarly...can any app find another app is installed or not..and if its installed...can it start?
on iphone..when you click on a HTTP link from an app it starts browser automatically..similar..
There is limited support for declaring custom URL schemes. Have a look at the answer to a question I asked previously.
