<p>The Bitcoin Improvement Proposal that defines the Bitcoin URI scheme is  <a href="https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0021" rel="noreferrer">BIP21</a>.</p>

<p>The simple syntax is:</p>

<pre><code>bitcoin:&lt;address&gt;[?amount=&lt;amount&gt;][?label=&lt;label&gt;][?message=&lt;message&gt;]
</code></pre>

<p>On the desktop all of Armory, Electrum and MultiBit respond to Bitcoin URI clicks in a browser and I believe Bitcoin-QT V0.7 does as well.</p>

<p>On mobiles Android Bitcoin Wallet does. On the iPhone the blockchain.info app does.</p>

It's important to note that although it isn't specified in the simple syntax, '?' after the first are changed to '&' as in regular URLs.  For example: `bitcoin:<myaddress>?amount=1&message=mymsg`

Not to nitpick, but the acronym "BIP" stands for *Bitcoin Improvement Proposal* instead of *Bitcoin Improvement Process*.

Apparently the number of decimals in the BTC amount matters. My wallet was rejecting the uri until I reduced the decimals to eight.

Bitcoin-Qt v0.7 for Windows does.  Not Mac or Linux yet.

The Bitcoin Improvement Proposal that defines the Bitcoin URI scheme is  BIP21.
The simple syntax is:
bitcoin:[?amount=][?label=][?message=]

On the desktop all of Armory, Electrum and MultiBit respond to Bitcoin URI clicks in a browser and I believe Bitcoin-QT V0.7 does as well.
On mobiles Android Bitcoin Wallet does. On the iPhone the blockchain.info app does.
