I have developed a Hybrid application for BB10 using IBM Worklight. I am using JQueryMobile. I have a page which has a footer containing links such as Home, About and Contact Us.
The issue is that, the links require multiple taps to hover. Sometimes, the links works in a single tap.
Sample Code
<div id="testFooter" data-position="fixed" data-tap-toggle="false">
<div class="ui-grid">
<a class="ui-block-a" href="#Home" style="padding:10px;display:block">Home</a>
<a class="ui-block-b" href="#About" style="padding:10px;display:block">About</a>
<a class="ui-block-c" href="#Contactus" style="padding:10px;display:block">Contact Us</a>
</div>
</div>
I have tried to increase the touch area for the anchor as follows. But, this does not solve the problem.
<a style="padding:10px;display:block">About</a>
Since the time I remember working on BlackBerry, there has always been this delay. Meaning, you must first 'touch' the screen, and only then further taps are recognized.
Here is a BB dev forum topic that talks about this as well: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Web-and-WebWorks-Development/Webworks-App-doesn-t-respond-to-key-events-until-screen-touch/td-p/1714221
I think this is called Navigation Mode or something alike.

I'm facing an accessibility issue with Safari browser on tabbing. Anchor tags are not getting focus on tabbing.
I have checked with and without tabindex. Setting tabindex="0", but nothing changed, not sure this is a bug in Safari or not. Tested in other websites including https://www.microsoft.com , the same experience.
Safari Version 10.1.1 (11603.2.5)
Mac : OS X El Capitan
Button element is getting focus, only issue is with anchor tag
<a id="footer-linkedin-link" target="_blank" class="social-footer-icon" aria-label="Follow on LinkedIn" href="https://www.linkedin.com/"></a>
Any valuable inputs will help me. Thanks in advance.
You can't have an empty anchor tag - there's nothing to tab to. That's an HTML validation error so browsers may handle it differently. Without your CSS I'm not sure exactly what you should do, but I'm guessing you really want something like this:
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.linkedin.com/">
<span id="footer-linkedin-link" class="social-footer-icon" role="img" aria-label="Follow on LinkedIn" ></span>
</a>
The icon being inserted with CSS needs to be the content within the anchor, be properly cast as an image using role="img", and that should have the aria-label.
I am new to working with worklight enviroment and started working it on recently.
I am using dojo version 1.9 (the IBM supllied one) , worklight 6.1, OS windows 7, eclipse juno sr2 64bit, IE 10 (For RPE), Google chrome latest (As default browser).
I have tried many widgets in dojo mobile and all of them work fine, i have been through other questions too like "Worklight 6.1 Android Applicaiton renders all views with no widgets" and followed all steps given in the solution and successfully created and viewed the pages on both MBS and android emulator.
The only problem is when i am working with views. I add a tabBar from dojo and TabBarButtons for view transitions . Also add a few views in the pages and link them with the buttons. I also check and see that my main.js file is updated with all included elements.
Although the toolbar along with default view is visible it does not switch view when i click on other buttons in tabBar.
also onclicking the TabBarButtons an error popsup in chrome console -
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function
This error pops up on each click .
here is the structure of my source code of in the body tag of index.html file :-
<body style="display: none;">
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.View" id="view2"
data-dojo-props="selected:true">
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.View" id="view0" data-dojo-props="selected:true" >
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.Heading"
data-dojo-props="label:'Hello world'"></div>
<button data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.Button">Hello</button>
<input data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.TextBox"><input type="range"
data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.Slider"
data-dojo-props="orientation:'H'">
</div>
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.View" id="view1"
data-dojo-props="selected:false">
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.Heading"
data-dojo-props="label:'About',moveTo:'view0'">
</div>
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.RoundRect">
Hello, we are a leading company in innovations
</div>
</div>
<ul data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.TabBar" fixed="bottom" id="Tab1">
<li data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.TabBarButton" data-dojo-props="moveTo:view0,transition:'slide'" id="tabB1">Home</li>
<li data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.TabBarButton" data-dojo-props="moveTo:view1,transition:'slide'" id="tabB2">About</li>
</ul>
</div>
<script src="js/initOptions.js"></script>
<script src="js/main.js"></script>
<script src="js/messages.js"></script>
</body>
// Rest all is default code, no changes in jquery version or anything else
I have also tried the following things and none of them seem to work:-
-Copied and replaced files in www folder from dojoLib/dojo/dojo/nls/core-web-layer.js and mobile-web-layer.js files.
-Kept the Tabbar out of any view directly into body tag and linked views to it.
-Added id attribute to tabBar and tab button elements, and view elements.
-turned off provide missing library resources and included missing files (if any) ,rebuilt the project and ran again.
The main issue (causing the exception) is the missing quotes around the view ids of the moveto attributes. It should be:
data-dojo-props="moveTo:'view0',
Once fixed, your sample will work.
But there are another issue, this time a design one: the TabBar fixed property is only meaningful when used with a ScrollableView (this property ensures the tabbar is not scrolled and keeps its bottom position). So your outer view should be a ScrollableView instead.
Also, note that nesting views come with some limitations. In particular, using the 'moveto' attribute you cannot transition from a view to another view if the latter is contained in another parent.
Do not hesitate to look at the various tests in dojox/mobile/tests and to the documentation
Is there an easy durandal way to clear the view and put a loading or please wait... on the screen so the user gets some feedback to know that it is working until the ajax content loads?
Right now when I click on a something that navigates to a child route and that child route loads a module that has to do a lot of stuff in activate(), it does not switch the nav or clear the screen or give any feedback to the user that it is working and I see them clicking many times over and over and getting frustrated, then just about when they want to give up, the page loads in fine.
I would like to make this default functionality for my app and not have to do something special in every module or on every page, is that possible?
Thanks.
Have you tried to use router.isNavigating? Original Durandal template contains a spinner like this:
<div class="loader pull-right" data-bind="css: { active: router.isNavigating }">
<i class="icon-spinner icon-2x icon-spin"></i>
</div>
A large percentage of the time, what you're looking for can be obtained very simply via:
<div data-bind="compose:ActiveVm">
<div class="text-center" style="margin : 75px">
<i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i>
</div>
</div>
The inner div can be any arbitrary markup which will display while the viewmodel is going through activation.
Note that this currently only displays the placeholder content the first time this dom section is composed. If you have a section of your application which is being updated via an observable viewmodel + compose approach, you could use the approach here:
Durandal: Showing a 'LOADING...' during composition
For anyone visiting from the future, this issue might be worth checking out in case native support for this is desired:

I ran into this issue while building my online design portfolio. It seems complex to me, but I know there is a way to do it, so I am frustrated that I can't find a solution. Please help!
My design calls for the use of media queries to optimize my site for mobile, tablets, and desktops/laptops. The mobile version has a single column of thumbnails. When each thumbnail is clicked, a hidden div is revealed below it via jQuery slideToggle, pushing down the other project thumbnails.
That is how the mobile version works and it works great. The problem is the tablet and dektop/laptop versions. For those versions, I want the the thumbnails to display in a grid pattern. Two side-by-side on tablets and three side-by-side on desktop/laptops with infinite rows for all versions. I can make them display in a grid with HTML, but the problem comes when a thumbnail is clicked and it reveals the div below it via slideToggle. Since I'm using media queries, the order of the HTML is still the same as the mobile version and the hidden divs are directly below each thumbnail in the code. Thus, revealing the hidden div pushes down all the other thumbnails, including the thumbnails in the same row as the thumbnail that is being clicked (if they come after it in the code). The last div in each row does what I want it to; the next row is pushed down when the hidden div is revealed. I want the hidden div to display below the row it is in and push down the thumbnails that are in the rows below.
And obviously I want to stick with media queries to avoid creating separate HTML, if possible.
Repeating HTML for the thumbnails and hidden divs:
<div class="body">
<div class="thumb"></div>
<div class="projectWrapper"></div>
<div class="thumb"></div>
<div class="projectWrapper"></div>
<div class="thumb"></div>
<div class="projectWrapper"></div>
<div class="thumb"></div>
<div class="projectWrapper"></div>
<div class="thumb"></div>
</div>
I created a jsfiddle to demonstrate the problem: http://jsfiddle.net/EuHyc/13/
Please note that the divs are hidden using jQuery. Hiding them with CSS was not allowing my content within the hidden div to display properly when revealed. Also, I had to use display:inline-block because float:left does not force the hidden div to appear below it in the layout.
I hope I adequately explained the problem. Thanks in advance for any help! I sincerely appreciate it!
i get a simple dojo example with a roundrectlist.
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.RoundRectList" id="results" >
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.ListItem" >item1</div>
<div data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.ListItem" >item2</div>
</div>
executing it on the blackberry device os 7, the trackpad is not used to navigate in the list.
instead i have to move the mouse pointer and press enter key.
What is specific code to add or may be dojo isn't the right framework for bb.
Worklight 5.0.5
thanks.
