Just started with Sencha today and found it a bit overwhelming. Was able to get a nice custom tabbar working, and top nav panel, however am stuck from where to go.

Decided it might be a lot easier to just use JQTouch and a Phonegap TabBar instead. I found: http://phonegap.pbworks.com/iPhone%3A-UIControls-(TabBar)

I'm on the latest 0.91 version of Phonegap, and the example given on that page doesn't seem to work... http: //skitch.com/nelga/d4nfd/iphone-simulator

Does anyone have a suggestion for the best method of integrating a custom iPhone Tabbar using PhoneGap and JQTouch?

Thanks, Glen

You question is slightly confusing, as you mentioned you worked with Sencha as well. This answer is about adding a tab bar with jQTouch.

To include a tab bar in jQTouch, you'll need to download a later version of jQT than r109. Go to its GitHub to grab the latest version (currently r148).

Then refer to an answer I posted previously.

  • Hi, yes sorry. I started developing with Sencha, but found it over my head. I moved into jqTouch which has been great. Is that link the most current way to get a stable tabbar in an iPhone app using jqTouch & PhoneGap? I'd also seen iScroll - but unfortunately it is said to not work well with forms. – Nelga Oct 12 '10 at 06:29
  • I haven't developed for PhoneGap myself, but for a pure web app, yes. Another approach you may consider is hybrid: you may develop the tab bar in a native environment and load the web app individually in a web view component (e.g. UIWebView for iPhone). – William Niu Oct 12 '10 at 08:17
