I put together a simple applet implementing Touch-related event handlers on a Canvas element, to test support for Touch in various browsers on my Android Honeycomb tablet (Toshiba Thrive). I posted the results on my Wordpress blog:
http://cs.jsu.edu/wordpress/?p=346 I was actually somewhat shocked at how bad the results were: of 5 browsers tested (counting Firefox and Firefox Beta separately even though they behaved identically), none got everything right and only 1 browser, the (Chrome-based) default Android browser, passed 3 out of 4 of my tests. Firefox only passed 1 test, and Opera failed every test. None of the browsers passed the last test, but to be honest, I can't really say it was a fair test, since the problem may not even be the browsers. I set up the Canvas to respond also to mouse events, with a visual difference between mouse events and touch events, then tried to use a Bluetooth mouse with the Canvas. All of the browsers seemed to treat the mouse events as single-touch events. The OS may be sending these to the browser as touch events, though. I would like to pass these results along to some of the browser development forums, too, but I'm not sure which forums would be appropriate. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
