i have developed iphone application almost, but for some screen i need to use already made functionality in java scripting, so i thought of using Phone gap, will it be possible to add this in already present project .
suggest me with your expert answers
thank you .
I think that is not possible to integrate phonegap with native app.
My suggestion if you just need to use javascript, html and css in your native app why are you looking for Phonegap ? Use UIWebView instead.

I'm looking for a Framework to create mobile applications, if possible writing all code in Java. The idea is create for all mobiles Android, iOS, Windows Phone etc.
I found: Sencha, Vaadin and others.
What's the best ?
if you need to build cross mobile application you can use phonegap http://phonegap.com/ it is better you can use javascript and HTML and CSS to build applications.
Xamarin is another great one. I think you're asking the wrong question though. There isn't really a BEST one, its more what fits into your style. Some might say phonegap is the best, but you can't use code behind in phonegap only HTML CSS and JavaScript. So you gotta find what works best with what you want to do.
Also, look up chrome web apps. You can now develop apps using chrome rendering engine and usual html css and other web based code types and package into apps for the different os app stores.
Everyone is talking about Ionic, I am using it and I love it. Here are some slides to introduce you.
I would use ionic framework, is based on apache cordova, and use AngularJS. If you dont know AngularJS you have other alternatives like goratchet made by bootstrap creators. The only 'problem' is that you'll have to use javascript, html and css, not Java.
I am using ionic framework as well. The best part is you do simple command like ionic build ios to have an ios version of your app, as well as ionic build android for android version.
AngularJS is actually easy to learn (as long as you have basic understanding of JS), the best resource would be egghead.io. I use Ruby on Rails as backend to render an API for my ionic app to consume, so i pretty much don't need to use NodeJS or other JS framework as backend. Also, there is a lot of support for ionic. You can always search Google for a codepen example if you need help.
I have one html file, I will set the html file in iphone based application by using mgwt .. Please help me to set the html files in phone ...
Thanks in advance..
Based on what I was able to grasp from you question you have an HTML file and you want that file to act as an iPhone hybrid app using mGWT. If that's the case, then there is an huge abyss to cover before getting to that point. This is the list of general steps you would need to cover to get all the way there.
Get a grasp of GWT Basics
Configure a simple mGWT application with PhoneGap support.
Understanding the way GWT MVP works will also be very helpful but not required
Once you have that working its time to wrap the web app into a iOS cordova webview with PhoneGap
Please note that you will require an Apple Mac to acomplish the last step. You will also reequire to be registered as an Apple developer if you intent to get your resulting app into a real device. Also you will require a good understanding of Java application development and a good grasp on how Web applications work (HTML, JS and CSS at least).
You have a long way ahead of you.
I am new to Phonegap to develop native Applications. I cant see any jQuery files under WWW folder. Why should i download it?
Is it possible to bring UITabBar, UITableView everything through Phonegap and javascript without jQuery? What is senchaTouch, what is the purpose of it? Anybody can give clear direction?
jQuery is not required to make apps with PhoneGap. However, if you would like to, you can use jQuery in your apps if you wish (jQuery just uses Javascript itself).
UITabBar and UITableView are native iOS controls. PhoneGap does not provide a way for you to use those at the moment. But if you take a look at the PhoneGap roadmap, you will see a bullet point marked "Native Controls" - so don't give up hope!
I came across this link:
http://ofps.oreilly.com/titles/9780596805784/
which seems to suggest web app can be converted to native iphone without writing a single line
of objective-c code. But the book mentioned there is outdated now and things may have changed a lot.
Are there open source software that will allow me to automatically convert my web application to native iphone ( or android) application? By the way my web application is html5 canvas based animation application with lot of html and css as well.
PhoneGap doesn't generate native code for you: it creates an application consisting of a WebView and throws your HTML code on it. From personal exerience I can add that the performance is quite slow, on both iPhone and Android, compared to a native app.
jqTouch creates a nice way to access your web application, but the application remains a web application residing on your site, plus you have to use some jquery for styling.
Apparently the only one that actually does generate native code is Appcelerator Titanium. On RhoMobile I never managed to get to the point to actually write some Ruby code because you have to know all the Ruby in he word just to install it on your Mac.
So the verdict was to sit down and develop the app in objective-c.
Have you looked at PhoneGap?
Simple steps to put your html app into iOS native container, without coding:
Download xCode
Download simple web view app from https://github.com/nomtek/iOSWebViewApp
Open simple web view app within xCode
Add your HTMLs to the project file structure
Run your app and voila :)
This approach is good if you don't need access to any phone specific features, just a standard Web View. Loading time will be short as this approach doesn't load any extra libraries.
I've been using JQuery draggable/droppables in my application from last 1 year. Now, the application needs to be supported over iPad and iPhones.
Known, above JQuery won't support drag/drop over iPads...
I'm looking for a some JQuery plugin or so which I can connect to my existing JQuery codes for drag/drop over iPad.
After googling, I found some alternate ways like, JQTouch, jquerymobile etc.. But, it looks I would then need to do massive changes (or, write a complete drag/drop things from scratch) in my application :(
My application is very heavy and hence looking for some quick/easy way to connect my existing JQuery solution into iPad touch events etc....
Please help
Thanks in advance
This project will allow you to use jQuery UI on the iPad:

this will work with draggable.. dont even need to change your code when using draggable!
