Android allows bookmark shortcuts to the default browser (called 'Internet') and Dolphiin.
But Firefox and Opera do not.
Is there a way to create a shortcut to a URL to be opened in Firefox of Opera ?
Or, more generally, create a shortcut to an app with an argument, e.g. a PDF viewer app with a particular PDF file ?
In the 'Make Shortcut !' app I could not find a solution.

Is there any tool that can set any executable file as default web browser (open html files, handle http)?
I need to do this from time to time and I'm always forgetting some registry entries.
(Or is there any way how to quickly set the latest builds of Opera 9.5 as default browser?)

Hey,
even though Opera is configured to be my default browser, there are still some shortcuts that are opened only via IE and not Opera. For example shortcuts from outlook e-mails and I-nigma.
Is there any way to change that?
Thanks.

I am developing an application which simply opens a PDF with adobe reader on Android. Right now, when the user clicks the application, the user is presented with the option to use a few different PDF readers.
I want to write code into my application that forces Android to open PDFs with Adobe Reader.
Is this possible?
Thanks

No, unless the developers of the browsers do it.

Not like that, but Boat Browser and Dolphin both have tabs that you can customize with shortcuts. Dolphin allows 10 and Boat allows 30.
Also in dolphin browser you can create a folder in your bookmarks and name it bookmark toolbar and access it with just a swipe of your finger. Also dolphin browser has a addon called Bookmarks to SD that allows you to import and export bookmarks to and from an html file to and from dolphin browser and the stock browser. I took my bookmarks from my laptop of firefox and chrome saved them to html files then imported them into firefox to organize and clean them up getting rid of duplicates and then imported the cleaned bookmarks into dolphin browser and the stock browser so I have the same bookmarks all across the board. There are a few glitchs but for the most part the concept works.
thanks for the replies... shame that but il try your way and see hwo i get on
