Thanks for the great start on using jquery w/iphone(rather than iui, which i think is great)

Anyone having trouble getting landscape mode to fill the screen, besides me? !

Consider putting something like this in the head/script tag.

currentWidth = 0
var updateLayout = function() {
if (window.innerWidth != currentWidth) {
currentWidth = window.innerWidth;
var orient = (currentWidth == 320) ? “profile” : “landscape”;
document.body.setAttribute(”orient”, orient);
window.scrollTo(0, 1);
$(’.viewport_body’).css({width:currentWidth})
}
};

$(function(){setInterval(updateLayout, 500)});

This is a great start thanks!

I second the request for view examples. The intent is hard to discern from the code: how should I specify toolbar? How do I get pinstripes on panels? (Can I get pinstripes without modifying either the stylesheet or the default layout?)

Thank you. Does this supersede the iui plugin? I did a fair amount of searching, but could not find a tutorial or example of how to use this plugin. Are instructions/examples posted somewhere for someone new to iui?

Like Sebastian, it’d be great if you had some view examples!

Looks good so far. Are there any examples avaible?

This looks really cool.

Does this still render the “drill down pages” of the iphone-versioned app using ajax in the same/similar way that iUI did?

And if so does it still require the “requests should use render :layout => false (unless loaded into a new page with target=”_replace”).”? http://preview.tinyurl.com/3xwjfg
