Control iPhone volume using phonegap? - iphone

I was wondering if anyone knew how to control the iPhone's volume using PhoneGap/Titanium/Corona? If not I would very much appreciate a tutorial on how to develop my own plugin that would be able to interface with the iPhone frameworks and develop something along the lines of MPVolumeView.
Thanks!

Dredging up an old question, but there is a plugin available for this now if anyone stumbles upon this question looking for a solution:
https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iPhone/VolumeSlider
It basically does exactly what #Aaron Saunders suggested (loads an MPVolumeView via a plugin).

How to create iphone webapp on windows? (I can use my friend's mac for finishing)

I know a lot of similar questions have been asked, but my case is a little different.
I have a windows machine on which I want to do the development. I can borrow my friend's mac for signing/publishing to store or other things.
Is it possible to do this? Can I create a "Dynamic Web App Project" in eclipse, do the coding and finally use a MAC to finish it? My app is 100% offline app.
Where can I find the directory structure for the HTML/CSS files?
How can I achieve the iphone look and feel of buttons and other UI?
I know that many people have done this but I cant find any tutorial. Please point me to one if you know about it.
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like this would be a great job for phone gap.

They provide wrapping software to make your web application run natively on the phone.
It sounds to me like you should look at phonegap for the coding.
For getting your buttons, backgrounds, icons and such to look and feel more like native iOS apps, take a look at this list of graphics for iOS. Most are free. There are .zip files with pre cut images, and a number of .psd files for you to choose from. If you are not using xCode or Titanium to build the apps, these are a nice way of getting that native look and feel.

Panorama hotspot implementation

I've recently developed an application that view a panorama 360 image, using Panoramagl library for iPhone, and i wanna enhance it and make more features like hotspot.
I've tried to look at a javascript code that implement this feature, but it's useless.
I don't know from where to start implementing this feature and i don't understand the concept of the hotspot. can anyone put me on the right way to start implementing this feature ?
thx in advance.
I've ended up using a library called KRPano using it in UIWebView, it has a good support and has a lot of features.
PanoramaGL for iOS was updated recently to 0.1 r3 version. This new version support Spherical images 2048x1024 pixeles. And hotspots feature was added.

DragonFireSDK and iPhone development on Windows

So in previous questions about iPhone development on Windows, the basic/easy answer has been "just get a mac." However, I noticed a comment that mentioned DragonFireSDK. But no one else said anything about it?
Has anyone tried this? It look pretty legit to me, but I'm new to the iPhone world. I just find it weird that no one has discussed this yet. I mean, it looks like the perfect tools for the Windows users.
Thanks!
Oh yeah....here's the link to DragonFireSDK: DragonFireSDK
EDIT: This app is for my website, We, the Pixels. Any comments on if Dragonfire would be a good fit for an iPhone version of my website? Thanks!
DragonFireSDK is good, I have been developing several apps with it, the first of which is now available, a game called Firefox Fun: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/firefox-fun/id393933733?mt=8
Yes, I use DFSDK and got my apps published to apples appstore using the sdk. they have good API it lets you use c/c++ to create your app.

Is anyone using Sencha Touch for mobile development?

We're evaluating Sencha Touch for mobile development. Has anyone used this yet (I realize that it's still in beta), and if so, what are its strengths / weaknesses? How does it compare to alternatives?
It certainly sounds compelling.
Thanks!
I'm playing with Sencha Touch, I have a project up at GitHub. If you're comfortable with ExtJS it will be familiar. The examples are impressive (requires WebKit browser). You might be interested in this question as well.
I've used it only briefly. It looks very good and has a nice array of tools to make pseudo-native apps. One of the larger concerns is the licensing (the inclusion of ExtJS and the requirement to purchase a license to use the software). Now ExtJS and Sencha have merged - so I am unsure of what the impact will be. Also, as for alternatives, Sencha has merged in JQTouch (a primary alternative). See this post for more information
I think currently it is only optimized for safari-browser. I tried in on Android Phone (HTC Magic, Android 1.6) and the examples didn't work.
but it is a beta of course....
Currently ,i'm using sencha-touch in my project and pretty easy to use and understand especially with the documentation that comes along with it . As compared other mobile fameworks whose documentation is limited

iPhone OSC Library

I know there are some iPhone Apps out there that use OSC and i'm wondering now if someone of them released a nice library for it. I googled a loot around but didn't found anything. Maybe someone knows how to google better then me :)
I'm currently trying to get OSCKit to work on the iPhone, but i'm not that good in iPhone development.
Thanks for your answers.
TouchOSC is using oscpack
It's implemented in C++ which might be awkward to use in an iPhone (I personally don't mind)
There's a pure Objective-C OSC framework called "VVOSC" which is easy to configure and use in an iPhone SDK context:
vvopensource
OSC-Kit was replaced by WOscLib
-t
Sounds like you're looking for dsmi
Don't be put off by that "DS", it works on the iPhone too.
Also, if you are using PhoneGap, I implemented OSC for javascript (client-side) in my KievII library. Here's the code.
