The Android market is going through spectacular growth at the moment. It's going bezerk!
http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2010/10/05/the-rise-of-android-what-does-it- mean-for-apple-users/ The fact that it supports Flash and that its apps are written in Java instead of Objective C like the iPhone (last I heard of that language was in 1989!) made it extremely attractive to me but even without writing specific Android apps the fact that it has a proper browser means that wicket powered sites around the world will start to get visited, a lot, by yet another browser type. They've also found that Andtroid users, on average, pull down 25% more data per month on their iPhone cousins - apparently they're a lot more tech savvy crowd - less 'Angry Birds' and more ServerSide etc., Coming from Java world my knowledge of JavaScript is very limited so I don't know how helpful I'll be in debugging the Javascript as executed on a Webkit/Android browser. If anyone else out there has a wicket website and an Android phone I'd like to know if you experience some of the problem I did. It only appears to affect JavaScript - standard HTML form submission seems fine - as expected. - Chris >-----Original Message----- >From: Martin Grigorov [mailto:mgrigo...@apache.org] >Sent: Friday, 8 October 2010 12:06 AM >To: users@wicket.apache.org >Subject: Re: Wicket site on Android phone > >I guess it is some WebKit related Javascript issues. >Don't know how hard is to debug them but if you manage - send us a patch ;- >) > >On Thu, Oct 7, 2010 at 2:03 PM, Chris Colman ><chr...@stepaheadsoftware.com>wrote: > >> I've just picked up a new Android phone (HTC Desire - awesome phone BTW) >> and most of our wicket powered site works well.
