Is it possible to make a button 'add to homescreen' for the iphone?

Question

Im new to developing webablications for the iphone. I wonder if it is possible to add a button who has the simular function as the '+ add to homescreen' button to your website?

Answer 1

No, that has to be done from the browser's UI.

Several web apps show an arrow pointing to the 'add to homescreen' button along with an encouraging message.

Answer 2

Unfortunately this isn't possible.

However there are good tutorials and snippets available for guiding the user, like http://cubiq.org/add-to-home-screen .
