How do you understand the intention to open a web page?

Question

I am trying to catch the intention that gets fired when someone clicks on a hyperlink to a web page in the Mms browser. I have this in the manifest:                                         

        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <data android:scheme="http" />
        </intent-filter>

However, when I click http://www.ibm.com , it only launches the browser. Same thing when I $ am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d http://www.ibm.com in the adb shell. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you very much with

Copy the intent filter lines from the browser manifest and it will work:

        <!-- For these schemes were not particular MIME type has been
             supplied, we are a good candidate. -->
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
            <data android:scheme="http" />
            <data android:scheme="https" />
            <data android:scheme="about" />
            <data android:scheme="javascript" />
        </intent-filter>
        <!--  For these schemes where any of these particular MIME types
              have been supplied, we are a good candidate. -->
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <data android:scheme="http" />
            <data android:scheme="https" />
            <data android:scheme="inline" />
            <data android:mimeType="text/html"/>
            <data android:mimeType="text/plain"/>
            <data android:mimeType="application/xhtml+xml"/>
            <data android:mimeType="application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml"/>
        </intent-filter>
