**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Oct 16 02:59:58 2010 Oct 16 03:06:00 just launched a new app...totally excited about this one! Oct 16 03:07:02 link Oct 16 03:07:09 http://developer.palm.com/appredirect/?packageid=com.pjnation.ahangmanhaunting Oct 16 03:07:17 but its not working for some reason Oct 16 03:07:29 this is it on precentral Oct 16 03:07:30 http://www.precentral.net/app-gallery/app-catalog/a-hangman-haunting Oct 16 03:10:48 could someone help me get docter battery to work please, I let it go all the way down too 3.413, and it fails everytime, is there a trick? Oct 16 03:13:14 whoolio: looks nice. Oct 16 03:13:26 thanks Oct 16 03:13:35 this is the ipad demo if you want ot try it Oct 16 03:13:37 http://www.pjnation.com/hmdemo/ Oct 16 03:13:43 xbonesx: no idea what that even is. Oct 16 03:14:06 tyri it on chrome of safari Oct 16 03:14:14 dont bother with IE... Oct 16 03:14:18 firefox is ok Oct 16 03:15:15 cool. Oct 16 03:15:44 thanks again! Oct 16 03:15:55 haeffb: it helps restore ur battery from what it says, it's in preware "Dr. Battery" Oct 16 03:17:16 whoolio: I lost. Couldn't get "Dracula" Oct 16 03:17:21 haha Oct 16 03:17:48 in test mode when i only had on eword in the system...i woudl still lose Oct 16 03:17:52 lol Oct 16 03:24:55 hm, anyone used setStyle in Mojo? Oct 16 03:25:33 * oil has used it in webdev, but never in mojo Oct 16 03:25:46 * halfhalo doesn't know html Oct 16 03:26:29 you ever tried using it with something like... -webkit-transform? it doesn't seem to like the starting - :p Oct 16 03:26:43 so, I leave and then big news bombs drop? I guess I need to leave more often :D Oct 16 03:26:54 lol Oct 16 03:27:12 also, oil: you're the dev behind Lumberjack right? Oct 16 03:27:15 isnt setstyle done with a json type thing? Oct 16 03:27:27 heh.., oil... dev... Oct 16 03:27:27 yes Oct 16 03:27:48 oil: setStyl does take a JSON object Oct 16 03:27:52 http://api.prototypejs.org/dom/element/setstyle/ Oct 16 03:27:54 setStyle even Oct 16 03:28:25 SineOtter: .style['-webkit-transform'] Oct 16 03:28:44 * oil doesnt find himself setting just styles Oct 16 03:28:52 * oil usually creates a class and uses those Oct 16 03:30:15 I'd do a class, but I need to adjust the thiing via javascript, so I'm going to need to adjust the setting anyways (unless I'm TOTALLY missing something else too) Oct 16 03:30:22 SineOtter: can't use . notation with properties that have a '-' in them Oct 16 03:30:32 have to use array notation Oct 16 03:30:46 looks nice whoolio Oct 16 03:30:54 object.style.backgroundColor="#00FF00" Oct 16 03:30:57 oh, yeah, oil: is there a way to rapidly jump to the bottom/top in Lumberjack? Oct 16 03:31:06 is normally with a - in it Oct 16 03:31:12 right Oct 16 03:31:13 * haeffb needs to get this "lumberjack" Oct 16 03:31:13 there is not Oct 16 03:31:19 i could add a way Oct 16 03:31:29 but -webkit-transform doesn't 'exist' as far as js knows Oct 16 03:31:49 hmm, that makes this all the more confusing Oct 16 03:31:54 element.style.webkitTransform = "rotate(-2deg)"; Oct 16 03:32:05 does that work? Oct 16 03:32:12 only one way to find out Oct 16 03:32:13 I think I tried that once Oct 16 03:32:17 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/708895/how-to-set-the-style-webkit-transform-dynamically-using-javascript Oct 16 03:32:18 but can't remember Oct 16 03:32:18 googled it Oct 16 03:32:21 nice Oct 16 03:32:34 internet is too slow for google here at the 'rents house Oct 16 03:32:36 * oil is a red belt in google-fu Oct 16 03:33:01 lol Oct 16 03:33:53 * halfhalo is an eleventy belt in bing Oct 16 03:34:02 lol Oct 16 03:34:14 haeffb: its in preware Oct 16 03:34:28 hmm hmm hmm, thank you oil~ Oct 16 03:34:30 thats what she said Oct 16 03:35:01 lol Oct 16 03:35:27 * halfhalo needs to find his high speed sd card for moving files from mac mini to desktop since gigabit ethernet is being slow Oct 16 03:35:53 wah Oct 16 03:36:23 could someone help me get docter battery to work please, I let it go all the way down too 3.413, and it fails everytime, is there a trick? Oct 16 03:37:32 gigabit too slow, haha Oct 16 03:37:42 * haeffb needs to get this "preware" Oct 16 03:38:05 haeffb: YOU DON'T HAVE LUMBERJACK?!?! WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?! Oct 16 03:38:08 it is for my needs Oct 16 03:38:21 xbonesx: does it tell you to put it on a charger? Oct 16 03:38:25 * haeffb uses "palm-log" Oct 16 03:38:29 it should have like, a giant thing saying "PUT THIS ON THE CHARGER" Oct 16 03:38:45 haeffb: but lumberjack is sooooo much cooler Oct 16 03:38:52 its funny Oct 16 03:39:01 * haeffb has lumberjack Oct 16 03:39:02 because the idea for lumberjack came from the preware thread Oct 16 03:39:10 yep and and as soon as that hits I do, and then it says it fails to cali. right away Oct 16 03:39:30 * haeffb waiting for a wirc update Oct 16 03:39:33 then wait for a few seconds after it hits that point THEN put it on the charger Oct 16 03:39:39 oh hey, looks like the Rangers remembered they were the Rangers Oct 16 03:39:52 haeffb: too many projects, not enough time :) Oct 16 03:40:30 * halfhalo is waiting for a wirc update as well Oct 16 03:40:55 so, how much has the oil fund collected so far? Oct 16 03:40:59 tried and it either dies before I get it n or says it fails,i would like to add that my battery is pretty bad, rather than 20 to 0 in seconds, it more like 50-40 to 0 in seconds Oct 16 03:41:26 then you might just have a battery that's way beyond what dr. battery could help with? :s Oct 16 03:41:31 what does it say the health is Oct 16 03:41:36 rwhitby sent be $20 :) Oct 16 03:41:43 s/be/me/ Oct 16 03:41:55 thats enough for... food. for a day Oct 16 03:42:07 you can wait on updating wIRC until the Pixi gets hybrid app support ;P Oct 16 03:42:13 when I first started the dr., said 83% Oct 16 03:42:24 * oil has hopes Oct 16 03:42:27 for health Oct 16 03:42:46 * halfhalo has -monies, else he would send monies Oct 16 03:48:33 any thoughts on the 83%? Oct 16 03:49:25 SineOtter: ? Oct 16 03:49:51 it's low but it shouldn't be dropping about 50% in like a few seconds Oct 16 03:50:25 the calibrate function is based on the battery protection circuit putting itself into calibrate mode Oct 16 03:50:54 which from the sound of it, is having such a tiny window that it's basically impossible to get it onto a charger in time Oct 16 03:51:29 but the phone never dies I can get the charger plugged back in before it dies... Oct 16 03:56:04 how long does it take for it die after it tells you to put it on a charger? Oct 16 03:56:45 about 30-45 sometimes up too a min Oct 16 03:58:46 look, a wircer! Oct 16 03:59:06 oh Oct 16 03:59:17 imagine that Oct 16 03:59:28 lol that makes two of us Oct 16 04:00:05 SineOtter: still here? Oct 16 04:00:13 yup Oct 16 04:00:13 the only two users :/ Oct 16 04:00:43 okay so wait, after Dr. Battery says to put it on a charger to calibrate, it takes anywhere from 30-45 seconds to a minute to actually turn off? Oct 16 04:03:09 no actually I think the volt fluxes, so it will hit 3.413 and then shoot back up taking it out of "learnf" Oct 16 04:03:31 hm Oct 16 04:04:07 and that's why it's failing I think... but right now you have reset the health to 100 and am going to let it charge all the way then let it die and try to cali. it then Oct 16 04:04:17 I have * Oct 16 04:08:39 the actual number was in the 900 range and iguess 100% is like 1183 or something Oct 16 04:12:08 how in world do you escape a ' in a string c_c; Oct 16 04:15:10 note to self: '\' doesn't work, but "' does :I Oct 16 04:17:15 huh? was that towards me Oct 16 04:17:52 no, more general question Oct 16 04:18:06 trying to concocate a string and going "wat fff" Oct 16 04:19:15 SineOtter: what are you trying to concat? Oct 16 04:19:58 Moooooo Oct 16 04:20:07 hey halfhalo Oct 16 04:20:14 Hola Oct 16 04:21:08 JenP: webkitTransform takes values in 'translateX(value)' and I'd like to insert my variable into value Oct 16 04:21:37 Ya know, wirc is a damn good irc client compared to androi Oct 16 04:21:54 http://webos.pastebin.com/kBRXiVC2 Oct 16 04:24:01 halfhalo: yeah, it's nice. I like it. can't wait to be able to use 3.x Oct 16 04:24:31 * halfhalo misses it Oct 16 04:25:33 JenP: any ideas, since that's not working? Oct 16 04:25:54 what does the log come up with Oct 16 04:26:10 the proper string, in this case, "translateX(25)" Oct 16 04:26:13 herp one second Oct 16 04:28:19 thought it might not be functioning because I wasn't declaring I wanted pixels, but it's still sitting idle :p Oct 16 04:29:03 theoretically, would "translateX("+value+" px)" work? Oct 16 04:29:10 id ont know if htis helps the conversation but i use jqurey to transform... $('#eleementid').attr('style', "-webkit-transform: rotate(5deg);"); Oct 16 04:29:20 excuse the typos Oct 16 04:29:32 the code is correct though Oct 16 04:29:44 wouldn't that require me to bundle jQuery in? Oct 16 04:30:09 i use it with ares by just referencing it noramlly Oct 16 04:30:34 Oct 16 04:30:54 and thats how i did the animations in my app i listed early Oct 16 04:30:56 earlier Oct 16 04:31:06 yeah Oct 16 04:31:31 I have decidedly less animation though Oct 16 04:31:58 thopse 2 files are only about 225 kb together Oct 16 04:33:07 yeah, but 225kb for one animation is a bit overkill lol Oct 16 04:33:41 well u could just make the animation a class and then apply it to the element Oct 16 04:35:48 what the transition time for the animation Oct 16 04:35:51 ? Oct 16 04:37:26 varies Oct 16 04:37:27 but! Oct 16 04:37:31 the code you posted helped a ton Oct 16 04:38:01 im workign on somethign fo ryou Oct 16 04:38:22 3 minutes Oct 16 04:39:31 anyways, what I'm trying to do: using translateX(value), I'm trying to shift a div side to side to align it with the current GPS velocity Oct 16 04:39:45 for a large scrolling speedometer display that will shift side to side Oct 16 04:39:57 hi Adora!! Oct 16 04:40:23 why not just use the x-position ? Oct 16 04:40:37 dkirker: hihi Oct 16 04:40:38 set the x-position Oct 16 04:41:06 sorry....the "left" value in the css Oct 16 04:41:23 example position:absolute; left:99px; top:31px; Oct 16 04:41:48 -webkit-transform: translate() animates smoothly between the two positions Oct 16 04:41:50 instead of jumping Oct 16 04:52:59 this worked for me Oct 16 04:53:01 document.getElementById("speedometer").style.webkitTransform = "rotate(180deg) translate(10px, 75px)" Oct 16 04:53:36 hm Oct 16 04:53:51 my issue is that for translate, I want a variable for 10px Oct 16 04:53:56 which gets changed elsewhere in the code Oct 16 04:55:04 function moveit(xvar) { Oct 16 04:55:06 document.getElementById("speedometer").style.webkitTransform = "translateX(" + xvar" px, 75px)" Oct 16 04:55:08 } Oct 16 04:55:20 then just call the fuction when u need it Oct 16 04:55:22 moveit(xvar) Oct 16 04:55:41 substituting xvar with the number Oct 16 04:56:15 sorry that line shoudl have been Oct 16 04:56:22 document.getElementById("speedometer").style.webkitTransform = "translateX(" + xvar + " px, 75px)" Oct 16 04:56:45 this works...i tested it in Ares Oct 16 04:58:58 hey, hi Adora, long time no chat :D Oct 16 05:02:27 SineOtter: is that workign for you? Oct 16 05:03:11 * Tibfib wants to go to dev day. Oct 16 05:03:30 me 2 Oct 16 05:03:32 `/me does as well Oct 16 05:04:17 maybe someday with a midwest dev day. Oct 16 05:11:07 I am pissed at myself for not taking time off to go to the one in Sunnyvale. I hope another one happens soon. Oct 16 05:15:06 actually, I am mad at myself for letting myself get so disjointed from Palm and webOS... Oct 16 05:15:19 hm? Oct 16 05:16:08 We were just commenting on Palm Dev Day. Tibfib wants a midwest one, and I can't wait for another West Coast one (I didn't let myself go to the last one). Oct 16 05:16:28 I'd love a west coast one Oct 16 05:16:45 the sf one was fun Oct 16 05:17:17 I'd love to go to SF, it's awesome Oct 16 05:17:24 it is!

I love that I built this image so that it'd be real easy for me to know how many pixels to move it for 1mph, and that it's been so long that I can't remember how many pixels = 1mph :T Oct 16 05:19:23 sineotter...didn't u get the code working?. Oct 16 05:19:32 yeah, I did Oct 16 05:19:43 but I can't remember what my image offsets were D: Oct 16 06:19:13 i need some help installing an app to the andriod emulator Oct 16 06:19:21 can anyone help?

It has now pulled all my mail and my facebook contacts but has lost all my normal contacts and phone numbers. Oct 16 14:23:06 I have the backup of the palmdatabase.db3 but can't find where the phone numbers are stored Oct 16 14:23:16 does anyone know where I can extract them from? Oct 16 14:35:49 did you look at that file? Oct 16 14:38:38 yeah I have opened it with SQLite Database Browser. There is a table com_palm_pim_Person which has all their details in except the phone number!? Oct 16 14:38:54 hmm Oct 16 14:39:42 com_palm_pim_ContactPoint – Has one entry per contactdetail (Phonenumbers ...) Oct 16 14:39:48 http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/PalmDatabase.db3_File Oct 16 14:42:19 ah, thanks for the pointer to that url, there is an example perl script there to create a CSV Oct 16 15:56:03 the day has finally come where I need psuedodrawers inside lists. Oct 16 15:58:26 need help with them? Oct 16 15:59:05 I might. I'm going to verbatim copy the webos101 example and see how far I get with that. Oct 16 16:01:10 i'm doing something similar Oct 16 16:01:35 Although I dont know how much trust I can put in haeffb's code O_O :P Oct 16 16:01:40 hehe Oct 16 16:02:16 I can tell you that I do not trust it...! Oct 16 16:02:26 I KNEW IT Oct 16 16:02:35 ...but I use it anyway. Oct 16 16:02:36 he's a fraud! Oct 16 16:02:54 all his apps were actually coded by his son Oct 16 16:03:15 Illegitimate son from south korea* Oct 16 16:03:29 north korea i thought?

Oct 16 16:05:28 Yea he can do 2 things at once Oct 16 16:06:17 He can program in webos while simultaneously interpretting correctly, the latest version of webos docs Oct 16 16:09:45 hi, im having problems with dr. battery could someone help me, i let it sit doing nothing until it hit 3.413, but it fluxes so when it hits 3.413 it jumps back up making the app fail Oct 16 16:16:57 for some reason it doesnt want to sit at that voltage or lower... ? Oct 16 16:19:42 xbonesx: you should try #webos-internals Oct 16 16:21:30 yeah, i'd try there Oct 16 16:21:35 the developer might be around Oct 16 16:24:32 lol im in their too Oct 16 16:24:52 i forget who the dev is...

Oct 16 17:09:29 I dont see any drawers when Clicks teh links Oct 16 17:10:37 Clicks the Lynx sounds like a mascot based 90s game Oct 16 17:13:11 we could produce that and have it as a webos exclusive Oct 16 17:15:37 anyone know how shut off the ability to make or take calls, but still have 3g or 1x net? Oct 16 17:29:01 any takers? Oct 16 17:29:43 im basically wanting to be able to use tethering without having calls or txt interrupt the service...

Oct 16 18:27:32 one thing i like about 4g is ability to use data on a call Oct 16 18:28:07 gsm can do that too Oct 16 18:28:09 :) Oct 16 18:28:16 i know Oct 16 18:28:25 on 3G Oct 16 18:28:50 meh, the epic is pissing me off more and more as I use it Oct 16 18:29:01 i love that phone Oct 16 18:32:17 it likes to beep alot Oct 16 18:35:12 turn it off Oct 16 20:14:16 Anivrom: new this.character() Oct 16 20:14:23 ahhhhhh Oct 16 20:14:25 :P Oct 16 20:14:51 I figured out anoher way but now that makes sense Oct 16 20:15:16 I just made character a global without knowing it and it worked so I stuck with it Oct 16 20:17:01 your drawers clean? Oct 16 20:17:10 ?? Oct 16 20:24:24 So, anyone get a free device from the program by Palm? Oct 16 20:24:30 not yet Oct 16 20:27:01 Anivrom: I got an email saying "Based on the information received I have gone ahead and qualified you for a free Palm Pre Device. I would love to speak with you more in regards to your plans for developing applications for webOS." and asked what they wanted to know.. haven't heard back Oct 16 20:27:24 Did you guys get more information about the device? Or just a "you qualify"? Oct 16 20:28:45 I haven't heard anything at all. It seems really, really poorly run :/ Oct 16 20:28:57 Tibfib: must be a form email. Oct 16 20:29:36 hmm. I think so Oct 16 20:30:59 haeffb: you going to dev day? Oct 16 20:32:58 or anyone else? Oct 16 20:33:35 meh too much money Oct 16 20:34:05 Anivrom: where are you again? Oct 16 20:34:13 southern ontario canada Oct 16 20:34:17 just above buffalo Oct 16 20:34:23 I knew it was canada! Oct 16 20:34:28 yea eh Oct 16 20:35:06 ok so psuedo drawers inside lists. the webos101 example seems far too complex than mine needs to be Oct 16 20:35:42 Anivrom: you are a lot closer than me Oct 16 20:36:17 Anivrom: I have a sample of a list of drawers, with lists in the drawers. Oct 16 20:36:40 is it something a 2 year old could figure out? cause if not I wont be able to understand it Oct 16 20:37:00 Anivrom: I barely understand it myself. Uses wacky code Oct 16 20:37:06 Tibfib: yes I am Oct 16 20:37:15 haeffb: flying out of KCI? Oct 16 20:37:32 err, MCI Oct 16 20:37:35 Can you pass that code along? Oct 16 20:37:47 most likely. I'll be in Kansas that week, depends on when I come back to MO. Oct 16 20:38:09 haeffb: trying to figure out a way to go here Oct 16 20:38:09 Anivrom: pseudo drawers in list is MUCH simpler than actual drawers in lists Oct 16 20:38:27 well I couldnt understand your example so I'm dumb. Oct 16 20:38:43 your example was very much specific to Noted Oct 16 20:38:59 http://www.webos101.com Oct 16 20:39:20 wow whats that webpage about? never seen it before Oct 16 20:39:31 do they have a notes example of psuedo drawers or smoething? Oct 16 20:39:38 :P Oct 16 20:40:12 * haeffb needed a link to click on Oct 16 20:40:23 I see :P Oct 16 20:40:38 I couldnt really wrap my head around all the complex javascript stuff you used in the example. Oct 16 20:40:48 I'm still a nub at javascript AND html Oct 16 20:40:52 which part was complex? Oct 16 20:40:55 className = event.originalEvent.target.className Oct 16 20:40:57 Anivrom: link to article? Oct 16 20:41:12 http://www.webos101.com/Pseudo-Drawers_In_A_List Oct 16 20:41:52 that's a lot easier than my sample Oct 16 20:42:33 so go with haeffb's Oct 16 20:42:58 ok so let me get this straight. if I have a div inside a row, and it has a height of 50px and I display="block" the div, my list will automatically expand the list? Oct 16 20:43:10 cause if so I dont need all the fancy formatters and class checks. Oct 16 20:43:25 and node lookups and what nots. Oct 16 20:43:31 those things get me confused Oct 16 20:44:09 you don't have to use the formatter - that's just to use runTextIndexer to format the stuff in the drawer Oct 16 20:44:38 Tibfib: Having lists inside my list would be helpful though Oct 16 20:44:48 Anivrom: but it's a painnnnn Oct 16 20:44:53 for the swipetodelete function Oct 16 20:52:31 this should work: http://webos.pastebin.com/1t7hGNsR Oct 16 20:53:00 @ Anivrom Oct 16 20:55:43 are there styles associated with these divs? Oct 16 20:56:50 just palm ones I believe Oct 16 20:56:58 oh, you can get rid of
Oct 16 20:57:43 And looking at my code, I don't setup the drawers anywhere. Oct 16 20:59:37 I think you were missing 1
for the introlist Oct 16 21:00:04 hmmm? Oct 16 21:00:30 in your code. Count the
against the
Oct 16 21:00:47 yeah Oct 16 21:01:01 I'm not missing any. Oct 16 21:25:54 hi all Oct 16 21:27:16 hey Oct 16 21:27:36 Its pretty quiet in here today. Oct 16 21:28:53 yeah? Oct 16 21:28:58 ya Oct 16 21:29:02 yayayayayayayaya Oct 16 21:30:11 lol i wonder what's going on. What are you up to? Oct 16 21:30:33 I'm building a helper app for a tabletop rpg Oct 16 21:30:53 Anivrom: finish your other app? Oct 16 21:30:55 Halo based tabletop rpg**** oh schnapps Oct 16 21:31:00 Howdy JenP Oct 16 21:31:12 nah its kinda on the backburner till I can get some other stuff out of the way Oct 16 21:38:02 hi Tibfib Oct 16 22:00:59 how do I get a div to autosize depending on the contents? Oct 16 22:01:30 nvm ill just google it Oct 16 22:01:31 lol Oct 16 22:07:02 it should autosize on it's own. Oct 16 22:07:07 it doesn't Oct 16 22:07:25 hmm, are you statically setting the height? Oct 16 22:08:12 um.. maybe <_<..........>_> hey look I fixed it Oct 16 22:08:48 Thanks Tibfib but the problem was I was setting the height statically. Oct 16 22:08:56 So I just removed that and it works Oct 16 22:09:04 im so smart! Oct 16 22:09:10 Anivrom: have a cookie Oct 16 22:09:13 yay Oct 16 22:09:31 whats the quick answer to inserting carriage returns into simple div text Oct 16 22:12:37 Anyone know how to get the index of the item being sent to a formatter function? Oct 16 22:22:12 bah this div is being STUBBORN. Wont let me insert carriage returns Oct 16 22:22:15 or line feeds. Oct 16 22:23:11 carriage returns? use
tag? Oct 16 22:23:24 it just displays the
as text Oct 16 22:23:32 \r\n doesnt work either Oct 16 22:23:47 although both those together doesn't show up which is progress Oct 16 22:23:55 weird i wonder why it's treating it as text Oct 16 22:23:57 it still wont go to the next line though Oct 16 22:24:01 lol Oct 16 22:24:14 Cause I'm not using the innerHTML property. Oct 16 22:24:32
Oct 16 22:24:34 #{modifiers} Oct 16 22:24:36
Oct 16 22:24:39 its just straight text Oct 16 22:24:48 Idk how to access the innerHTML property of my div Oct 16 22:25:01 hm..sorry idk Oct 16 22:37:57 Tibfib: You know how to access the innerHTML of a div inside my list? Oct 16 22:58:46 How do I get the list selector to animate open? Oct 16 23:25:04 * Tibfib imagines dictionary app with just type Oct 16 23:31:35 tibfib: any idea why half my text in my list selector is cut off? Oct 16 23:31:48 Is it too long? Oct 16 23:31:57 um no Oct 16 23:32:00 lol Oct 16 23:32:04 what part of the list selector? Oct 16 23:32:07 the text is cutting off halfway across the selector Oct 16 23:32:15 The actual widget Oct 16 23:32:32 check your css, see if you have any conflicting classes Oct 16 23:32:41 I dotn have any css Oct 16 23:32:47 hmmm Oct 16 23:33:01 and when I turn multiline on it wraps Oct 16 23:33:08 but wont display past half Oct 16 23:33:46 hmm, no clue Oct 16 23:34:10 wow, I knew Verizon really screwed with the GPS and all, but this is kind of redonk :C Oct 16 23:34:51 my sprint pixi will track about every .5-1 seconds, verizon pre+ apparently takes 5+ minutes! D:< Oct 16 23:36:01 Anivrom: check out styles, containing divs... That's all I can think of Oct 16 23:36:12 meh I'll just use another method Oct 16 23:36:58 sounds good Oct 16 23:37:35 I have no will to fight with webos today Oct 17 00:04:13 Anyone know how to made the radio buttons smaller? Oct 17 00:19:57 fklasd;fjlksdajfklasd; Oct 17 00:20:18 CSS? Oct 17 00:20:19 why the heck wouldnt a hold event on a list give me the index.... thats ridiculous Oct 17 00:23:34 Anivrom: that's not a list event is it? Oct 17 00:23:46 onhold? Oct 17 00:24:05 Lists have hold events in ares. Oct 17 00:24:20 oh. Oct 17 00:24:33 then no clue. Oct 17 00:24:41 lists have 11 different events you can add with a click of a button Oct 17 00:24:48 in ares Oct 17 00:25:14 too bad they don't all work right. Oct 17 00:25:20 MHMMMM Oct 17 00:25:56 oh Oct 17 00:26:04 it does have the index. It's just burried. Oct 17 00:26:13 event.target.mojoListIndex Oct 17 00:26:15 -_- Oct 17 00:26:18 lol Oct 17 00:28:15 wtf Oct 17 00:28:36 * Anivrom slashes ares wrists Oct 17 00:32:26 Tibfib: the plot thickens. event.target._mojoListIndex Oct 17 00:34:34 bah how would I go about hiding a div from a backgesture? Oct 17 00:35:01 know how to respond to a back gesture? Oct 17 00:35:09 nope Oct 17 00:35:33 something to do with metatap listeners? Oct 17 00:35:38 thats about all I know Oct 17 00:36:25 SceneAssistant.prototype.handleCommand = function(event) {if(event.type == Mojo.Event.back) { ...Do stuff} Oct 17 00:36:41 } Oct 17 00:36:49 oh snapp Oct 17 00:36:52 thanks Oct 17 00:37:05 Is this verbatim-safe? Oct 17 00:37:07 :P Oct 17 00:37:17 also, you can do Mojo.Event.forard Oct 17 00:37:24 which no one uses apparently Oct 17 00:37:25 forward* Oct 17 00:37:30 * Tibfib uses Oct 17 00:37:38 I always try it in different apps to see how they implement it Oct 17 00:37:45 and am always dissappppoinnnteddd Oct 17 00:37:51 Anivrom: yes, verbatim safe Oct 17 00:37:54 almost Oct 17 00:37:59 .. :) Oct 17 00:38:03 hmmm I dont have a scene assistant Oct 17 00:38:35 rofl Oct 17 00:38:46 lol Oct 17 00:38:58 yea. I have an IQ of 2 today Oct 17 00:39:03 Been groggy all day Oct 17 00:41:49 tibfib: it still pops the card if I backgesture. Any way around that? Oct 17 00:42:09 oh. and add event.stop(); event.stopPropagation(); Oct 17 00:42:35 boom bam baby Oct 17 00:43:50 I won't question your odd choice of using a back gesture to hide a div. :) Oct 17 00:43:52 * oil never gets those do to what he wants Oct 17 00:45:16 Well I have a div that pops up containing a list of elements and the ability to add more elements. but if I decide I dont wanna edit add remove anything anymore its nice to backgesture instead of looking for a close button Oct 17 00:46:38 gotcha, makes sense Oct 17 00:50:14 no close/back buttons = more "webos-ey" :) Oct 17 00:50:24 oh really? Oct 17 00:50:30 dangit Oct 17 00:50:36 ok ill erase all my code then Oct 17 00:50:44 lol Oct 17 00:51:01 wait you were joking? Oct 17 00:52:27 >.< Oct 17 00:52:38 Ok so I wanna press the enter key and have it switch to the next text field Oct 17 00:52:41 Am I dreaming? Oct 17 00:52:55 should happen automagically Oct 17 00:52:59 lies Oct 17 00:53:13 hey you're right Oct 17 00:53:15 imagine that Oct 17 01:03:33 http://www.tanga.com/products/i-watched-lost-for-6-years-and-all-i-got-was-a-lousy-ending-t-shirt Oct 17 01:03:35 LOLz Oct 17 01:04:40 lol. Oct 17 01:04:45 I liked the ending though. Oct 17 01:09:42 So what happens when I try and parseInt a string? will it throw an error? Oct 17 01:10:00 do it and find out :) Oct 17 01:10:54 I remember seeing something about being able to limit the input characters in a text field to only specific characters. Oct 17 01:31:14 rwhitby: You know anyone who knows node.js well? Oct 17 01:31:26 creationx does Oct 17 01:31:30 @ Roy-Pre101 Oct 17 01:32:01 Anivrom: Thanks. Oct 17 01:32:09 dont know where you'll find him though Oct 17 01:32:18 Mmm, well... Oct 17 01:33:00 Roy-Pre101: http://github.com/creationix Oct 17 01:33:39 what about node? Oct 17 01:34:19 Just wanting to learn it. Oct 17 01:34:27 howtonode.com Oct 17 01:34:28 its fun Oct 17 01:34:39 http://github.com/creationix/howtonode.org Oct 17 01:34:44 oopth Oct 17 01:34:51 thats creationix's blog Oct 17 01:35:02 * halfhalo likes node Oct 17 01:35:12 * oil will get halfhalo to write all his node stuff Oct 17 01:35:31 * halfhalo will demand compensation Oct 17 01:35:36 in the form of cookies Oct 17 01:35:40 lol Oct 17 01:35:53 and/or unreleased shiny items Oct 17 01:35:59 i was going to say, part of $0 is $0 Oct 17 01:36:00 lol Oct 17 01:36:39 I do have to say oil, wirc is a damn good irc client compared to the ones for android Oct 17 01:36:47 :) Oct 17 01:37:00 * halfhalo misses webos already Oct 17 01:37:07 well wtf Oct 17 01:37:30 lol Oct 17 01:37:45 I ordered an epic 4g to use it for webdev stuff Oct 17 01:38:03 but when I went to activate it for a trial run I found out it can make calls at my house where my pre cannot Oct 17 01:38:12 andchat is not bad at all Oct 17 01:38:13 nice Oct 17 01:38:20 ugh, it's only 6:35. It feels like 9 or 10 :C Oct 17 01:38:40 port webos to your epic Oct 17 01:38:44 So until sprint finishes the new towers near hear (supposedly in Jan), I'm stuck with the epic as my main phone Oct 17 01:38:49 * halfhalo tried Oct 17 01:39:02 This thing literally beeps at everything Oct 17 01:39:27 change settings Oct 17 01:39:38 * halfhalo did Oct 17 01:39:47 it still likes to beep/vibrate/esplode Oct 17 01:39:59 wtf.... why is everything so difficult in webos. All I wanna do is get the value of a text field. Oct 17 01:40:02 i have the same phon. hear no beeps Oct 17 01:40:26 * halfhalo also hates having to use the damn menu key for everything Oct 17 01:41:11 how do you guys get the value of a textfield? Oct 17 01:41:17 via the model? Oct 17 01:42:24 yes Oct 17 01:43:31 at first i did not like the phone since i was so use to webos but now I realize that webos lacks a lot Oct 17 01:43:52 HERESY! Oct 17 01:44:14 it's one of those apple orange type things in that webOS has a lot of stuff up on other phones while others have lots up on webOS Oct 17 01:44:24 here's hoping 2.0 doesn't blow! Oct 17 01:47:35 in the case of webos and android i would say webos has a better email and calendar app. I can't think of anything else it does better Oct 17 01:47:46 multitasking Oct 17 01:47:54 notifications Oct 17 01:47:59 oil Oct 17 01:48:20 not driving me f'ing crazy Oct 17 01:48:22 to start Oct 17 01:49:18 multitasking is a non issue imo. android apps load instantly and I prefer having them in the background instead of cluttering the screen. Would be nice if palm added the ability to minimize apps Oct 17 01:50:05 eh, multitasking on android can be confusing as hell, having things on the screen as cards is nice Oct 17 01:50:33 Deihmos: technically speaking webos apps dont "clutter" the screen since if you're not in an app already you're either switching to another app via launcher which is intuitive and fast, or switching via cards Oct 17 01:51:14 the ability to minimize but still visible would be good though Oct 17 01:51:15 sometimes i want to keep an app running Oct 17 01:51:28 if you're not in an app, it can be "cluttered" in that you still see all the cards though. Android you just see the home screen (which is cluttered with apps and widgets... lol) Oct 17 01:51:29 they should implement a taskbar style system Oct 17 01:51:29 without having to keep the card open Oct 17 01:51:47 that'd be gross, Anivrom Oct 17 01:51:49 for instance instant messengers. Oct 17 01:51:51 Nah Oct 17 01:51:56 I'd like a taskbar style Oct 17 01:52:02 you can minimize and still know whats running Oct 17 01:52:03 dnla id nice though...  Oct 17 01:52:12 if anything, let you throw the card down to dock it to the notification area similar to throwing it up to close Oct 17 01:52:23 I was just thinking that Oct 17 01:52:25 w/e way it works Oct 17 01:53:04 Deihmos: you can close the IM card and still remain logged in/receiving messages in the background :p Oct 17 01:53:29 native apps yes, maybe not 3rd party Oct 17 01:53:30 idk Oct 17 01:53:35 you can only do that if you use gmail or yahoo with the stock palm thing Oct 17 01:53:55 nah, aim and stuff works too? I do it all the time Oct 17 01:54:06 stock palm messenger Oct 17 01:54:21 anything 3rd party cannot do it Oct 17 01:54:25 Anivrom: I think that's a big reason why node.js is coming into play so people can write their own background things Oct 17 01:55:02 instead of weird .jar background magic Oct 17 02:03:38 how do i dynamically set the size of widgets inside a list Oct 17 02:04:45 i'm working from within ares Oct 17 02:08:30 i have tried this.$.list1.$.itemContent.$.row1.html1.setWidth(some_number) but that doesn't work Oct 17 02:08:42 i have tried this.$.list1.$.itemContent.$.row1.$.html1.setWidth(some_number) but that doesn't work Oct 17 02:08:54 lol Oct 17 02:09:03 why's that funny Oct 17 02:09:31 its not. It's funny how many hoops you gotta jump through to get to things Oct 17 02:09:34 if you know a better way feel free to enlighten me Oct 17 02:09:57 well ares wraps up everything in like 10 layers Oct 17 02:10:05 :/ Oct 17 02:10:22 so you gotta put like 10 $ to get to some widget Oct 17 02:11:16 it kinda makes sense after a while but the lack of documentation on how ares handles rendering is driving me nuts Oct 17 02:11:54 yeah, lack of documentation is what made me just give up and start doing everything in straight mojo Oct 17 02:12:11 when it works it's really great Oct 17 02:12:24 but when you have to debug it gets out of hand Oct 17 02:12:38 * oil votes straight mojo Oct 17 02:13:00 so i'm guessing nobody here know the innards of ares well enough to point me in some direction Oct 17 02:13:08 Nope Oct 17 02:13:10 of course ares did get a few things right (like maps and gps handling ffff) Oct 17 02:13:17 I was struggling with the same quesiton about an hour ago Oct 17 02:13:20 I sometimes wonder if Palm knows the innards of Ares well enough Oct 17 02:13:32 well, considering they wrote them, i assume so Oct 17 02:13:34 i've looked at the chrome files and they are pretty well laid out Oct 17 02:13:47 i just wish there were more docs on what the chrome is used for Oct 17 02:14:04 at least that way developers could modify it on the fly Oct 17 02:14:06 dkarapet, why dont you try looking at the object in the debugger again Oct 17 02:14:07 and not break things Oct 17 02:14:22 look for _width Oct 17 02:14:50 when you are using $ you can modify the width of something by _width Oct 17 02:14:54 worth a try but i'm pretty sure setWidth modifies that attribute Oct 17 02:14:58 kinda like setting the style property Oct 17 02:15:10 back in a sec Oct 17 02:15:18 I think it's a property not an attribute Oct 17 02:16:26 yeah, try setting it as a style property Oct 17 02:16:43 currently I am stuck on how to extract the value of a toggle widget.... Oct 17 02:16:49 You would think it would be easy Oct 17 02:17:54 that doesn't work Oct 17 02:18:04 i'm certain i need to call reflow() and render() Oct 17 02:18:07 on something Oct 17 02:18:17 but i just can't figure out what that object should be Oct 17 02:22:54 createComponents and destroyControls needs more documentation palm people Oct 17 02:23:03 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
