scrape website for iphone/mobile web app output - iphone

All,
I have an existing website, that uses a CMS. There are no modules that we like or seem fit
for IPhone/Android/Windows Mobile Safari/Chrome/IE website display available for the CMS.
Is there any open-source project out there that can scrape a html site output for mobile browsers on the fly, where minimal coding is required, and little or no changes required to the original logic?
eg. apache/CMS -> converter -> iphone/android/windows phone.
Thanks in advance for your comments.

Why GitHub hosting a .NET app is not working

I was told a few days back GitHub will let you deploy a free (basic) website.
My first attempt with an HTML, CSS, Javascript website was successful.
However, When I tried to deploy a simple test ASP.NET, even though there was no error, the website was not showing at all.
Does GitHub let you deploy a test .NET website? Any feedback is appreciated.
No, it does not. GitHub Pages is designed for static websites; that is, websites with only static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. There is no support for any backend whatever.
If you want to host a service with a backend component, you'll need to find other options.

Eclipse RAP Web Application and Google AdSense Integration

I am planning to develop a website in Eclipse RAP, as I am a Eclipse fan and know bit of RCP. And I would like to make use of the Google AdSense so that commercial ads can be displayed in my web site. As RAP is bit different from regular web applications, I would like to know whether Google AdSense can be used in my RAP based web site.
Also I came across some news regarding the restriction on number of concurrent sessions in RAP based web applications. What is the maximum limit? Will it be improved in the newer versions in future? Kindly clarify the same. Thanks in advance.
I don't know about AdSense specifically, but you should have a look at the Browser widget. It's a widget that can contain any HTML/JS and renders as an IFRAME in the web browser.
Update: as a workaround, you could add an HTML element in a JavaScript snippet that you send to the client using JavaScriptExecutor. This snippet could append an element to the document using plain DOM API, or append an element to a RAP widget using the RAP client API. Have a look at rap.getObject() and Widget.$el.
Yet another approach would be to develop a custom widget.

Best framework for embedding HTML pages in an iphone app?

I am developing an app which has a significant 'reference' section in it. It's information that is very applicable to being created as a set of HTML pages, linking to each other.
I am wondering if anyone knows of a good framework out there to embed HTML pages within an iphone app, to be able to open a specific page by key and any other niceties. The best I've seen so far is CMHTMLView on github.
I know I can load HTML pages directly into a UIWebView, I'm looking to see if there's a framework which does a bit of the boilerplate for for me (e.g. checking for existance of files, be able to cache pages by a keyword, any other niceties like being able to index and search pages). Thanks!
To display easy to navigate HTML in a mobile, I use http://jquerymobile.com

WebPage Maker online?

Is there an existing CMS similar to what the WebPage Maker software can do? For those who don't know what WebPage Maker is, it's a webpage authoring software that features drag and drop functionality which allows users with minimal to no knowledge about HTML, to easily create webpages and publish it to their sites. I want to know if there's a CMS that does the same as this software already?
WebPage Maker's website is http://www.webpage-maker.com/
P.S.
I'm looking for something that I can implement on websites that I make.
You can give mojomotor a try.. It is a paid one. You need to login as admin and then click on the page and edit. The same is possible for small layout changes too.
If you willing to learn some basic installation of other CMS rather than webpage maker, i suggest you use Joomla CMS.

It's very easy to use, hv a try =)

Ad CMS to an existing website

I am researching integrating CMS into an already existing website.
I would like to set up certain pages to be editable by co-workers where they can upload/edit content via an online form.
I am however, restricted in that I cannot use PHP(i know, lame!) and I don't have ftp access to this server. I edit the html files on a mirror site and they get uploaded to the webserver by my supervisor.
I would like to use a CMS similar to CushyCMS. Is there a cms service or code that I can put into my html files that would enable my co-workers to edit their pages?
Thank you for your help!
is not possible, you need to use a technology that support server side stuff like PHP, ASP, JSP, asp.net...
If you don't have direct access to the web site is impossible to do something like that.
An easy way was to install a normal CMS like joomla, wordpress, or many others and that designing the theme same as the existing one.
