Default Shortcut off the Home Screen for a URL

Please Login to Remove!

I was curious if the more experienced BB guys here would know without any type of programming how one might have a link to a URL right off their home screen? Much like the mobileplay.com application where it loads up the browser and takes you right to the site. If not, no biggie but I figured if it was easy enough to do, somewhere here would know. Thanks! I did a search but found nothing that pertained to me.

IIRC there's a third party app that will do this. I don't remember its name though...

Easy, I think Go to you BB browser, get the link you want, options, browser config, then hit use current. Now, everytime you use the BB broswer, that page will pop right up.

We found ShortCut does the trick, its probably on the forum somewhere or you can find it at http://sundaracommunications.net/dow...y/shortcut.zip

We're actually in the process of having a programmer design a similar program as Mobileplay that will launch BBerryOne from the desktop.
