New Mobile Safari stuff in iOS5

[sant0sk1]

I'm very disappointed that you still can't upload files in Mobile Safari. I "get" the whole no filesystem thing, but come on at least show the photo/video picker.

Little impossibilities like this make mobile web apps perpetually less useful than native apps, and that sucks.

Use a different browser. iCab Mobile supports uploading, downloading, and side-loading to DropBox or iDisk. The only time I use Safari is when I clock a link in Mail or Twitter or some other client; otherwise, I use iCab almost exclusively.

You can upload pics from Safari using Picup: http://picupapp.com/

No word of whether activating a contentEditable now opens the keyboard. That'd be a big step for lots of content-focused web apps

Totally agree and that's the one thing I was scanning through the page looking for.

Quora's fantastic native editor is a contentEditable div and so the iPhone version has to do things completely differently which annoys me as a user.

It's the future of all editing and the only good present of rich text editing on the web.

Give me a sample URI and I'll check it for you. Or wait until I have the time to write up a naive example.

On iPad2 it's supported. Someone can try it on an iPhone?

Not perfect but kb activated w/aloha. Could only get bold to work.

If no one gets before me ill verify today if Nitro is running in WebView / Fullscreen webapps, I would also like to check if webgl is working now but can't check right now, at work.

Great news that webworkers are "working" :)

I'm sure we'll also get an update from Phoboslab and impactjs if there are any significant performance gains elsewhere for html5 graphics.

Man I hope the datetime picker allows masks/filters. I'd like to limit minutes to say, every half an hour.

Here is the spec: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/...

There is a step attribute. I don't know if they implemented that.

position:fixed is the most welcome addition.

Any word on adequate html5/javascript sound support; e.g., does the demo at http://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/demo/chris... work better than iOS4 (where the lag is huge)?

Guy I just found a web browser does flash page without paying monthly fees. Puffin browser!! Check it out
