iOS work around for Firefox

Andoid has a work around for iOS mobile devices which allows default safari web pages to be opened in Chrome easily from the safari bookmarks list. The "Open in Chrome" work around appears in the Safari bookmarks. Can the Mozzila guru's come up with a similar work around iOS mobile "bookmark"? The process of "sharing" for Firefox browser as suggested in firefox help is cumbersome and doesnt work easily. The chrome work around is quite good. However, I much prefer to use Firefox browser on all my devices. Here's the script I found for the "open in chrome" - I forgot where i found this script javascript:location.href=%22googlechrome%22+location.href.substring(4); Thanks.

I think the reason that works is Google Chrome creates a protocol handler definition in iOS so that any address starting with

  • googlechrome://www.example.com/ (regular)
  • googlechromes://www.example.com/ (secure)

is sent to Google Chrome instead of your browser.

I didn't immediately find an equivalent for Firefox. If I enter and submit

firefox://www.example.com/

in Safari's address bar, it asks if I want to open it in Firefox, but in Firefox, I just get a standard new tab instead of the specific page, so something is lost in translation. (Well. more specifically, the URL.)
