Just finished reviewing chapter 6 of your book @oreilly, Building iPhone Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Looking forward to the next chapter on phonegap. Looks pretty incredible! Thanks for demonstration. I’m going to give it try tomorrow.

Thanks Brock! I should’ve thought of that. Just tested and yes, prevent default applied to the touchmove event stops the rubberbanding. Example code:

myPageElement.addEventListener (‘touchmove’,function(e){e.preventDefault();},fake);

preventDefault on the body will fix the elastic bounce

Is touchmove the event to abort, or is there a better one?

Jonathan,

I want to sincerely thank you for making this video. I’ve wanted to use PhoneGap for awhile, but have had some problems using it. This video was very clear and helpful. I look forward to any future videos you make.

Thanks,
Brian

PhoneGap for iPhone requires Xcode which is Mac only.
