How will we sort RSS feeds? How can we use Widgets (iFrame)? How can I add an custom javascript on project start and main form page? Can I run an script on background during project cycle? For example, user can listen an music during program? Can I customize main page? How can I insert an advert javascript on program? Why? I saw that google admob checks your system not my google market account, if advert is not active on my project hosted your system, no advert is showing on projects. if i activate admob adverts on your system, admob is starting to publish adverts. Do you have an agreement with Google?

Does these new fixes only apply for newly created apps or do they automatically update existing ones if we recompile a new binary?

“custom user form” is a great feature. May I know when it will be release officially?
Besides, I want to make an ordering app., is it possible to link to the “custom user form” page from one of the “Chapters” in the eBook page? Thanks!

ibuildapp   Saturday, January 7th, 2012 06:12 pm GMT +00:00 at 6:12 PM
 

no interlinking at this point, but we will at some point in the future.
we will release officially in the next week.

The beta was due for release in mid January – did this occur? if so, where can I find the widget for creating the app distribution/promotion on a customer’s website/blog.

On iPhone web app. You have to exit completely and then go back into app after clicking on link to web site. There is no option to simply go back. Help
