title: Jquery Mobile Web: Is Calling Native Apps possible?
body: <p>I want to be able to touch a link on a mobile web page and have it launch a native mobile App, like Skype, for example. This seems like it would be a huge security problem, but I wonder if the mobile environment somehow allows this?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: YES! It works. a javascript call to document.window = "myapp://myparam" works great! Or for example, the following works:</p>
  
  <p>document.window = "skype://";</p>
  
  <p>The trick is knowing the name of the app. </p>
