How create an iPhone app that just starts a website

How do I create an iPhone app that just starts a website in the default browser? I'm not looking for a browser inside an app, just goto the pre-programmed website and close the app. What do I need to get this accomplished?

What you're talking about is homescreen shortcuts you can create out of Safari. Unfortunately to have a native app that just starts the webbrowser is not possible.

Here is how you create a homescreen shortcut:

1. Tap the share button in Safari

2. Tap "Add to Homescreen"

3. Confirm or change shortcut title

4. Done. See the shortcut on your homescreen
