jqtouch 300x209 jQTouch: iPhone/iTouch developement

hi friends, was reading some blog and found something really interesting for developing iPhone applications. basically jQTouch is a jquery plugin for mobile web development on the iPhone, ipod touch.

if you are using iphone/itouch you ll know that if site is designed as per its resolution then it looks nice on these device and also it becomes easy to navigate. but jQTouch is something beyond designing. it also gives you the feel of ipohne application. like this plugin uses jquery all over and it gives exact effect on web page as we get on iphone/itouch applications.

now a days most of the iphone applications are like this only which are of very small size (in KBs). basically these applications are just a browser’s shortcut and also they play little with safari’s property, like disabling address bar and few more options which gives a look like application not some site browsing.
