Question

I’m building a web application (based on Phonegap) optimized for iPhone.
I have to integrate a popup which will open our twitter page and shouldn’t fit to entire screen (for a simple navigation problem..how do a user should go back at full screen??).

I’ve noticed that Safari Mobile opens correctly the new page but ignores my window.load width/height parameters.

This is the incriminated js code :

var twitterLink=$(“#twitter a”);
var url=”http://mobile.twitter.com/test”;
twitterLink.click(function(){
window.open(url,’name’,'(height=200),(width=150)’);
return false;
});

I’ve just tried all other browsers on leopard and work!
My aim was embedding a Twitter Profile Page in the fastest way in a page of my app (which has a navigation bottom bar).
This morning I’ve tried with IFRAME , but with no luck…are not supported..
Then i’ve tried with the new Twitter intent but has the same problem as here in safari Mobile (ignoring parameters of popup)

Thanks a lot!!!

I think that’s a known bug of Mobile Safari.
