Comment on Make the most of the iPhone SDK by Don Babcock

Don Babcock — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 14:22:15 +0000

With the iPhone 2.0 release my web apps “broke” in that my textfields now bring up the standard keyboard instead of the numeric even though the field names contain the text “phone.” I suspect this feature was deprecated but then I have to ask how is one SUPPOSED to do this. I haven’t been able to find it in the docs.

Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, I deleted the source for this project after realising it could be written more efficiently (Yes, I should have kept a copy… sorry). I will write it again when I get time, but that won’t be until next year.

Thanks Ian and ANKUR. I might give B56 a try then.

SeyDoggy, Ian is correct. b56 is an extension of the 'release' (wasn't really a release) I made.

John, you can add AppleScript actions to ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions/. (Quicksilver is written in Objective-C; code is at Google)

where can I get the opensource code for quicksilver? Where do you guys access that?

I'm interested in infusing some applescripts with some of its features (This will probably just entail calling the separate scripts, instead of dealing with actual code, though...0

in what language was quicksilver written?

thanks.

seydoggy: as i understand, ankur had commited his changes and built from the same branch (r76 was what he built his version from IIRC), so the changes he made before are in B56 along with all the new ones. But I think Ankur’s memory optimisations are not part of the new build. Correct?

I’m trying to make a digg iPhone app, and this sounds perfect. Is this still available, and if so could I have a copy please?

Thanks

ANKUR, thework you have done to QS, has it been committed to the other builds or are you on a separate branch? Do you know anything about b56?

I ask only because I am using your b55 and wasn't sure whether an upgrade to b56 would be bad for my health. Is b56 an extension ot YOUR b55?

Thanks

Great . I’ll most likely fiddle with apple script. That’s definitey my bag recently.
