It should work remember that in Exec=blahblah line you need to put "\" character in front of every space character you type, that's why above command
Code:
/usr/bin/browser --url=http://www.mobile.cimbclicks.com.my/
needs to be written
Code:
Exec=/usr/bin/browser\ --url=http://www.mobile.cimbclicks.com.my/
That command actually runs default browser (MicroB unless one installed browser switchboard and changed) pointing it to address given as --url parameter. Source: bottom of page http://browser.garage.maemo.org/docs/dummy.html
