Sorry,
So that when a user arrives on a phone platform - Iphone, blackberry, droid, etc.
The browser asks you to click - add to home screen.
Then it adds an icon.
Then Your site runs outside the phone browser - so it looks like an app.

Ok, great.
So I am looking for a popup a modal overlay for mobile browsers that asks the user to bookmark the page.
Then I want to launch the page in a full screen (so the browser is hidden and it looks like I'm in an app.)

Someone has to have a cross browser solution?

Nope.  The mobile browsers won't allow you to disable the nav like that. You need to make an app.

You can't.

There was a suggestion for further research which should have been made as a new question.  

However, in the interest of happiness:
