Question

I need to know how to have an iphone app do nothing but open the web browser as soon as it starts. I know the code needed to open a broswer.. its

    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"];
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];

My problem is I don’t know where to put this code. Ive tried putting it in main.m but it either errors or does nothing. I’d like to avoid needing to use a button. I’d prefer it be automatic as soon as the app is launched. I also need to image this to a HDMI TV and once again, I know the code for this.. I just don’t know where it should be put, as I also want it to begin as soon as the app is started.

Thanks.

If you plan to submit this app to the App Store I’ve got bad news for you, Apple will reject your app if all it does is open a website.

But back to your question place the code in app delegate:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"];
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
}
