Answer 1

In your AndroidManifest.xml, declare that your DetailActivity can handle the URL.

<activity
    android:name=".DetailActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSER" />
        <data
            android:scheme="http"
            android:host="myapp.com"/>
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

You can then open up the URL as usual.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://myapp.com/aa-bb-cc.html"));
startActivity(intent);

In your DetailActivity, you can get and parse the URL passed to it as follows.

Uri uri = getIntent().getData();
String path = uri.getPath();
