Since this is my first post I'd like to say hi :) I've encountered some strange behavior when testing the samples. I've begun with the geolocation sample from gears.google.com, it works both on my PC (Firefox), the emulator (WM 6 Standard) and on my mobile phone (WM 6.5). However after copying the sample files (hello_world_geolocation.html, sample.js, sample.css and gears_init.js) to my http server the example stops working on both the emulator and the phone, but works fine on my PC. The mobile Internet Explorer doesn't even ask about allowing Gears from this site as if the JavaScript was never run (no status messages appear).
Whan can be the cause? It's not the mobile IEs missing features (same code works from gears.google.com). It's not my inability to copy files from one place to another (sample files on my server work fine on the PC). It's not a ~ in the URL (I thought that mobile IE might not handle special chars in urls correctly, but I moved the project to a tildeless path and it didn't change anything). I'm really out of ideas :( -- Leszek Jakubowski Makdaam
