One of the great things I can say about Apple is that the browser on the iPhone/iPod Touch is VERY well done. I’ll outline the technical details in the next blog post, but we do have a separate module if you happen to be on an Apple device which uses some of the newer HTML5 and CSS3 coding to enhance the experience. And what’s even better is that you can launch the site in a Safari shell so that it behaves and looks like an iPhone app. No wait to get into the app store and it installs in seconds. I’ve created a video explaining how that works:
Hey Ted,
Great video, as usual, but I was wondering how you went about setting up the load screen for a web app? One issue that we always had at the SJMA was the lag time when launching the tour to get it to the main screen. A launch screen would have been a great solution!
Thanks!

Chris – its supported in the new JQTouch… JQTouch is quite nice I might add.
Thanks Ted! I’ll have to check it out. I remember looking at it when it first came out, but I’m sure it’s come a long way since then. That was like a whole year and a half ago! :0)
Congrats on the new niece!
Chris
Yeah – there’s been a major revision since then – check it out!
