RE: Standardized gestures
This is an interesting idea. I know we get many requests for gesture
recognition on BlackBerry 10. Adding the link below as references as well for
the BB platform :)

Subject: Standardized gestures
I'm experimenting with Cordova on Android, iOS and Windows 8.
Has there been a discussion around trying to implement to set of 'standard'
gesture recognizers:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/apps/BR241937
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/EventHandling/Conceptual/EventHandlingiPhoneOS/GestureRecognizer_basics/GestureRecognizer_basics.html
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/GestureDetector.html
The idea would be that the native side executes JavaScript like:
javascript:cordova.fireEvent('tap', {node: document.elementFromPoint(400, 300),
x: 400, y:300 });
javascript:cordova.fireEvent('slide', {node: document.elementFromPoint(400,
300), x: 400, y:300});
This function could use document.createEvent to initiate events on the DOM node:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/document.createEvent
The purpose of this would be to have a consistent set of gesture recognition
across different devices instead of having javascript code in the 'WebView'
trying to do gesture detection.
Thoughts?

RE: Introduction
I will piggy back on the back of Lucas's intro as well: Hey All, I'm Erik a dev at BlackBerry. I've been working on the WebWorks product in some capacity for nearly a year now. I hope to be able to contribute as well in some meaningful way. Feel free to forward me any BB specific fixes that need to be done. Quick note: I've signed the CLA and have been parousing JIRA as well. My first little project is creating the native support in our webview for window.open with the menubar=true flag so we can support a menu bar less experience in Oauth. -Erik From: agri...@google.com [agri...@google.com] on behalf of Andrew Grieve [agri...@chromium.org] Sent: Friday, April 05, 2013 2:50 PM To: dev Subject: Re: Introduction Woohoo!
