In Javascript/jQuery, how can I detect if the client device has a mouse?
I've got a site that slides up a little info panel when the user hovers their mouse over an item. I'm using jQuery.hoverIntent to detect the hover, but this obviously doesn't work on touchscreen devices like iPhone/iPad/Android. So on those devices I'd like to revert to tap to show the info panel.

On iPhone, iPod touch and (presumably) iPad, Apple has multi-touch event handling available via JavaScript in Mobile Safari. I know the Nexus One recently added multi-touch support via an update, and I believe webOS is also multi-touch enabled. Do Android 2.1 and/or webOS have access to multi-touch in the browser, or is this currently exclusive to Apple devices?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI was using my phone (droid 3) and the app I was using force closed, my phone lagged for a few seconds and then I just put it down so it could catch up. While waiting the screen timed out and when I went to use it I could not unlock it. I can press the button on top and it will turn the screen on or off, and if I hold it it will bring up the power off menu. I tried to call it, and it went through. I got the normal screen to answer it, but I could not answer it. After I hung up I got the notification for a missed call. Everything seems to be working, my screen just does not respond to a touch. What should I do?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not highly familiar with javascript but I think this is the best way to accomplish my purpose. If not, please correct me. I have a licence text 2 buttons at the end. All of this is written in HTML in a WebView because there are some links in the licence. Now, I want that when the user clicks the "ok" button in the WebView, this triggers some javascript or listener that I can grab in Java to fire an Intent to go forward in the application. (The cancel button would do the opposite, but if I know how to do one, I can do the other. Does this rings any bell to someone? Any explanation or sample code is welcome.

Some Android devices don't have Android Market, like Korea, etc. Is it possible to detect the existence of Android Market at runtime? I know I can try to open a market uri first to see if there is any exception thrown. But I don't think this is a wise approach.
View 1 Replies View RelatedRight now all I am trying to do is detect when the screen is pressed and then display a log message to confirm it happened. My code so far is modified off of the CameraPreview sample code (it will eventually take a picture) so the bulk of the code is in a class that extends SurfaceView. API for the example code from the SDK is 7.

Is it possible to detect all touch events in an Activity and capture it and then in return pass that pass event to another View. For example:
Button 1 and Button 2. When Button 1 is pressed I want to capture that touch/click event and automatically pass that touch event to Button 2, basically with one touch/press you get the click generated and that same click is passed on to the second button automatically.
I want to figure out how to detect that the user has been doing a long touch press on the screen? Most of the solutions that I see assume that the DOWN + UP sequence of events.

View 3 Replies View RelatedJust a quick question about the Captivate. I just got myself an HTC Aria and I love how easy it is to use the touch screen on it. Its extremely responsive. Now my sister has the SamSung Instinct on Sprint and the touch screen is horrible compared to HTCs touch on the Aria. Im thinking about taking the HTC back to AT&T and getting the Samsung Captivate. I am just worried about the touch screen on it and if it will be like the Instincts? If the touch is as good as HTCs Ill get it. If its not, then Ill stick with the Aria because despite its size, its an extremely fun and responsive phone. Any thoughts?

I recently bought a HTC Desire which I've become exceedingly fond of.I've read (and been told by a colleague who owns a HTC Legend) that wifi should automatically turn off while the screen is off to conserve battery. I have the impression that I should be able to see the wifi icon turn on as I turn on the screen and unlock the phone. However, I haven't noticed that happening: The icon seems to just be on always.I have then tried observing my router's DHCP table when the the screen is off, but I haven't observed the entry for my phone disappearing (and I don't really know how much time has to pass before the table not showing my phone.Are there any settings that can cause this behaviour? What about programs? I current use smart monitor to log data usage as well as locale (using a SSID plugin and not the locale "location" condition). The only services I can see apart from those I think are OS services, are the ones for locale, smart monitor lite and the SSID plugin.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a customized view similar to Grid which will be used to hold a large amount of images. I'm using ImageButton to display the images, and I only want to load images onto the buttons once they are on the screen (and just display a static background image when they are not). The reason for it is that I'm fetching images from some back-end service and I only want to fetch them when the buttons are on the screen.To do that, I'd like to know if the widget is on the screen. Is it possible to detect if a widget like button is on/off screen? If not, any suggestions on how to achieve what I'm trying to do?

How can I detect that the user's finger has left the screen?
I tried using the emulator to see if getEdgeFlags() ever returned anything useful, and the result was always 0.
Basically, if a finger leaves the screen, then nothing is touching the screen anymore and I would like to detect that as a finger up event. How can I do this?
