Hi Sean - thanks for the tweets - just realised it was you. The apple dev link was very handy; the app now has a startup icon (I had been wondering if that was customisable). However, one thing I've just noticed is that when you declare apple-mobile-web-app-capable and load a web app from a home startup icon (ah ha, that's what I was missing first time round), it seems as if the iPhone isn't declaring itself as a mobile safari client because the Ruby on Rails application doesn't detect it and, therefore, it doesn't apply the iPhone rendering conditions. Instead it just treats the iphone as a normal web browser. Is there anything I can do about that, or is that the key to how the "apple-mobile-web-app-capable" works? If it's any help, this is how we're detecting the iphone;

Would it be easy enough for me to simply extract the scrollTo method or are there a few other methods wrapped up with inheritance?
