I remeber a looong Time ago i saw a video that showed:
Some one using a mobile tags, and asp.net would see what for device it would render it for specific device.
I'm working on a mobile ecommerce store, but looks crap on Iphone or ipod touch.
I have created a webapp using all of the recommended link and meta tags for safari, eg.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" />
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style" content="black" />
<link rel="apple-touch-startup-image" href="/startup.png" />
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/apple-touch-icon.png" />
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="72x72" href="/apple-touch-icon-ipad.png" />
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="114x114" href="/apple-touch-icon-iphone4.png" />
However, my issue is if the startup.png or any of the apple-touch-icon image files are updated on the webserver, it doesn't seem like a user's iphone or ipod will retreive the updated file once it has been saved to their home screen (I'm guessing it's cached somehow or something). It works to remove the webapp from the home screen and re-add it. But is there a way to let the application know it needs to refresh these images without requiring the user to delete and re-add it?
I had developed mobile web page in asp.net 2.0. This page is displaying with small font in safari on ipod touch and in iphone. for this i had copied iphone.browser definition file in

folder and run the command aspnet_regbrowsers.exe -i in command prompt. Then 2 files with ASP.BrowserCapsFactory.dll and BrowserCapsFactory.cs are created. But there is no result.

View 5 RepliesI need a set of basic Ajax controls that work well with ASP.NET. I need the basic controls, like lists, trees, masked edits, accordians etc. However, my twist is that many of the users of my web app will be using mobile browsers on Android and iPhone, so the controls need to work well in small screen touch oriented formats. (For example, the ASP.Net Ajax library resize control just doesn't work well in this environment.)
Does anyone have any experience and recommendations in this area?
I've some files stored in a SQL database. When a user visits a url with the given ID, the BLOB data is retrieved from the database to the webbrower via:
Byte[] myData = b.BlobContent;
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName);
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", b.SizeInBytes.ToString());
Response.BinaryWrite(myData);
Response.End();
However, the iPhone (Safari) can't download a *.txt and *.doc file. It says: "Safari can't download this file". A pdf can(!) be downloaded and viewed.
On Android none of the files can be downloaded.
Is this because the iPhone and Android just can't handle all files? Or am I doing something wrong in the Response.

View 1 RepliesI am very new to iPhone development. I have some queries regarding it and these are:
1) Can I develop iPhone application on Windows PC with the help of .NET framework? I have heard that if it is required to distribute the app throgh iPhone store, it must be developed on MAC OS.
2) Is there any open source framework that does the same? The purpose is to distribute the application.
3) Is there only one solution - get a intel MAC OS and develop iPhone app on this very machine?
How can i detect if iPhone access to my pages?
For example default.page. When users use iphone to browse default page, it will redirect to iphone default page.
I finally got iphone's VPN working with our firewall so iphone users can see our Intranet pages. But I'm having trouble with pages which contain links to pdf files stored on network shares. The pages render links similar to this:
<a href="\server1pdfsfile1.pdf.zip">file1.pdf</a>
When viewed with IE7 on a Vista desktop these links work great, opening the pdf file in the browser window. But on the iPhone the link results in a 404 error.
Is there some trick to rendering a link to a PDF file stored on a network share that Safari can open, or is it just not possible?
I would like to take our current mobile website and redesign it for iPhone use. All of the code on our website is currently run server-side and is split up in multiple pages, but I would like to get all the client-side features like transition animations and iPhone-like buttons that jQTouch offers. Where should I start?
View 1 RepliesNot sure if this issue should be posed here, but i try anyway:I have a webpage with a button, button click the webpage will write an image (in binary) to the response object, resulting the user can open or save an image.
Code:
response.ClearHeaders();
response.ClearContent();
response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=abc.jpg");
response.AddHeader("Content-Length", binaryImageFile.Length.ToString());
response.BinaryWrite(binaryImageFile);
response.Flush();
response.Close();
Everything is fine in IE in Windows, but in Safari in IPad/IPhone, it is viewed in a seperate browser tab, with the binary image file written as a very long string.In Windows, i know you have to select a program to use to open a new file type for the first time, is this the case in IPad? that i need to select a program?
Can someone point me to their recommended emulators for IPhone, Blackberry, and/or Droid devices? Preferrably free products.
View 2 RepliesSo I created a site optimized to be rendered in a mobile device. I set the Width Site is looking good on Blackberry of my <DIV> tags to be about 300px, for the most part, to account for the reduced screen size. However, the IPhone Safari browser renders this to the screen extremely small, and I can only assume that it's automatically reducing the size of the html accordingly to fit the device. Again, Blackberry does not do this.
