Styling Submit Buttons for Mobile Safari

By Keir Whitaker

31 August 2010 | Category: Design

As discussed on the most recent episode of Think Vitamin Radio we have been working hard on the redesign of this site and have been looking at how the site reacts when rendered on the iPhone using media queries (if these are new to you then Brian Suda's most recent article will get you started).

One thing both Mike and I had noticed is that submit buttons, when styled with CSS, appear to have a will of their own when viewed on the iPhone.

Submit Button Demo

Here's some basic CSS for a submit button:

input[type="submit"] {
    background: #262C32;
    width: 150px;
    padding: 9px;
    letter-spacing: 1px;
    border: none;
    color: #EFDDA8;
    border-radius: 3px;
    -moz-border-radius: 3px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 3px;
}

xib can't load Resource

Today, I have a trouble error. When I click Reload All class in Interface Builder, my xib is not loaded resource. But it's working. Soultion r-click on xib > Get Info and then you will see Info dialog. Please choose your Path again. It will work smooth again. If it's not working, remove your xib from your project. Copy your xib from your project and paste in other place. Delete your xib in your project folder. Add your xib from xcode, it will work again. I take a long time for searching solution and I can't find in goolging too :(

Why iPhone!

why iphone leading mobile market ? Less free software than android. $99/year developer license.We can't sell standalone app like windows.But iPhone leading the mobile software market. Over 140,000+ app in iPhone store. 25% are free app at iPhone app store. Android 57%. If somebody give free one phone and choice one, most ppl will choice iPhone. Why! no multitasking. Less free app. Apple is great branding in Mobile ? or pioneer in Touch Mobile ? I don't know. Apple have a secret or they are lucky ?

Phone-gap

Yesterday, I test phone-gap and jQTouch. Wow... Amazing... phone-gap look like iPhone UI. But I can't add Tab in there. I hope jQTouch will ad Tab UI look like iPhone UI. Animation is so nice and so smooth. I thought, I use iPhone App. I love it. I also thinking, what app should I developer with phonegap + jquery + html + css. Imm... many application also have in iTune App Store. I can't think in this day. What app should I develop and what app I wanna make ? I want to publish in iTune App Store but I don't have app. By the way, we can use sqlite with with safari. So nice and I can make database app with phonegap.

jQTouch

Yesterday, I'm testing jqtouch. Wow... It's great. I'm starting iPhone Development with PhoeGap. It's easy and fast development. I don't need to read iPhone SDK and I can development quickly with jquery. So, I searching iPhone UI with jquery because phonegap is not support native UI. I want native UI. It's nice and most of the people love it. I found jquery Iphone UI. It' not good. It design with iPhone Screen. So bad. Can't use in Web Design for iPhone Safari. So, I searched new jquery and I found and I love it. It's jQTouch. I found it and I said wow.... amazing....

PHP MeetUp Nov 2009 in MS Singapore Office

Nice Meetup. I listened about google andriod and iPhone. iPhone need 2.5 GB SDK to download first. We need Mac OS X for iPhone Development. iPhone Developer License is $99 per year. Eek! Too expensive. If we have iPhone Developer License, we can sell in apple store and we can get support for iPhone Development. iPhone Develoment is base on MVC patten. JSON is built in support but SOAP need 3rd party. In apple store 50K+ app for iPhone (wow...). If we want to sell app in apple store we need SWIFT code for bank. If you interest, you can check in this slide .

Another is Google Android. It's a free and open source phone. iPhone can run background service but android. We can write background service and we can call other app from our app. I phone can't do that :) SDK can run Windows, Linux and Mac :) We can use MOTODEV Studio for Android Development. Android Device are

Android application can do GUI, non-GUI and background service. It have 3 markets place

Google Andriod Market member fee is $25 per year that more cheaper than iPhone. For more detail, you can check in slide

Another topic is phoneGap. I'm very interest it because it just use javascript and HTML. It also support Jquery for Phone App Development. Amazing... You can check in http://www.phonegap.com . It's support for iPhone, Google Android and Blackberry. . PhoneGap is opensource and free :) Coding is familiar with us because it just HTML and javascript.
