In order to save a direct web link on iPhone's desktop, I use to browse desired webpage on safari and, once loaded, press middle button and then save to desktop option. I would like to do the same programmatically using jqtouch, jquery or any other asp method. How could it be done?
This question has been asked a few times on SO, but I'll just sum it up anyway.
If you're developing for non-jailbroken iPhones, then the answer is NO. But there is an altervative: see Javascript for "Add to Home Screen" on iPhone?.
If your audience are jailbroken iPhones, that's another story. The following post explains the solution: simulate "Add to Home Screen" feature on older iPod touch.
