updates: link above dead. , cdm9002 suggested, love of dogs, here information (credits goes ios developer tips)

first of all, need use method uiapplication:openurl: launch application webpage. example, can launch apple mail in way:

[[uiapplication sharedapplication] openurl:[nsurl urlwithstring:@"mailto://info@iphonedevelopertips.com"]]; 

to launch own application, there 2 things do: register custom url schemes , handle url launch in application.

to register custom url schemes, edit info.plist. below custom scheme 'myapp' registered.

cfbundleurltypes      cfbundleurlschemes        myapp      cfbundleurlname     com.yourcompany.myapp 

now, can launch app following urls.

myapp://  myapp://some/path/here  myapp://?foo=1&bar=2  myapp://some/path/here?foo=1&bar=2 

and in iphone sdk (i think applies ipad well), when launching application in response of urls above, send message uiapplicationdelegate.

in order retrieve information passed in url, /some/path/here, provide implementation message in delegate.

- (bool)application:(uiapplication *)application handleopenurl:(nsurl *)url  {   // url here }
