A WYSIWYG text editor for iPhone Safari?

Hello. After a few tests with my iPhone on various sites (a few Django one etc) I was looking at WYSIWYG editors and realised they don't really work too well on small touch screen devices such as the iPhone. Infact, TinyMCE (which I use for most Django projects) just doesn't really work at all. So I'm curious, is there a solution out t...

iOS - debugging tool to detect view touched

Wondering if anyone has written or come across a good way to log to the console the view that a touch occurred in.

Listening for javascript touch events but still allowing default scrolling behaviour

I am trying to implement a scrollable element for a mobile app and it looks like you must use preventDefault on the initial touchStart event, otherwise the browser will not fire all the touchMove events (presumably for performance reasons). So it would seem that if I want to allow touch scrolling on an overflown element, the user will n...

Can A Listener Trigger An InterruptedException?

Hi I was just wondering if I have a touchscreen device that has an onTouchListener, will current execution of a method switch immediately to that listener method when the screen is touched, and could this be used to trigger an interrupted exception of a try catch block.

iphone/ipad - parent UIView is blocking touches from getting to subviews - why???

I have a UIView which has a bunch of subviews. The subviews should be able to receive touch events, but for some reason the parent UIView takes the touch and does not pass it on.

How is google maps (web app) scaling so smooth on the iphone/ipad with the gesture/pinch?

If you have used the Google Maps web app on your iphone or ipad you know what i am talking about. You can't see my fingers in this screen grab, but this is mid-pinch (if you will) zooming out.

Is there a dual thumb slider (also known as a range slider) that responds to touch events?

YUI 3 just recently came out with touch event support for their slider, so that it can be manipulated using touch screens on mobile devices like iPhones and Android. However, it might be a while before there is a dual thumb slider (aka "range slider") made within the YUI 3 framework. Possibly it will take longer than the deadline for my...

Detect touch on irregularly shaped bitmap on Android

So I'm making a simple game with a few irregularly shaped bitmaps drawn to the canvas every frame. The bitmaps move around the canvas via simple motion math.

Rotate UIView using UITouch

I have a question on how I should approach rotating a UIView with touch based events. Quite simply, I want to rotate a UIView around an anchorpoint, depending on where I touch on and off within that view. Imagine a volume knob on a hifi, which you turn with one finger.
