iOS legibility improvements #3

I'm game for this, just need to see how it works on kindle. My one if broken, replacement coming on Wednesday, unless someone else has one. |

I discovered while working on this that the only way to make a home screened web app remain within the app and not switch to safari when you click links is to do onclick window.location = link.href; http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2898740/iphone-safari-web-app-opens-links-in-new-window I didn't want to include that change in this pull request because it's a f*cking insane hack, but it does make the experience a lot nicer if you do save it to home screen (particularly nice if you save the /nearby link). What do you think? |
|
AFAICT it wouldn't really have any adverse side effects for other browser. Those that support JS should behave fine, those that don't will fall back to the href. |
|
Oh and this is a version that is all smug with graceful behaviour and feature detection etc https://gist.github.com/1042026 Looks blessed by the gods of HTML5, I'll add it to my fork and this pull request. |
|
You got your kindle back yet? |
|
Yes, but now I've lost it. Gah. |
|
Just push it. We'll do it live. On 19 Jun 2012, at 11:01 AM, James Darling

FUCK IT. IT'S LIVE. I think it works. |
|
The inclusion of a doctype is making me feel like a grown up. |
|
I'm scared. |
|
SHIT |
|
FIXED. Maybe. |
|
CONFIRMED. Boom. We're in the future. |
This mainly improves the search results, but I added some title and meta viewport tags to the nearby and stop pages too (with some css tweaks to support, the overall effect is mostly unchanged)

I haven't tested on android, and I don't know how happy you are about aping Apple's list style, but hey.
