[users@httpd] Is it possible to redirect user to "market://..." URI?
On my website I should redirect Android users to my application on Android
Market. What is the optimal way to do this? My first idea was
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} Android [NC]
RewriteRule ^/$ market://details?id=......
But it doesn't work. Is it doable in Apache?
TIA, Vitaly

Perhaps mod_rewrite does not support redirecting to a different
protocol, and assumes your target is relative and appends it to the base
URI.
You could try to set RewriteBase to / for this scenario.

Thank you for suggestion. I replaced 302 to 301 return code, but it
didn't help - browser tries to open some weird URL like this:
http://mysite.com/market://details?.....
If I embed the same market URI into some html page and click on this
link - android starts market application as supposed.

There is no market://details application/system/scheme on your apache
server - this is a client-side phenomenon.
Issue a 301 Redirect to the above URL - you can put anything in a
redirect URL.
Convert the above into an explicit redirect by appending [R=301] to the
RewriteRule.
