ita, That's what I'm trying to figure out, if it's worth doing?

I don't think it is. It doesn't solve any of her needs.

If the library has free wifi, they likely also have computers patrons can use. She can write emails from there. No shipping or new tech to learn. And if she's adverse to using the computers at the library, she's not going to see the iPad that needs to be in a wireless area and has onscreen typing as a good thing.

Sorry. It's just weird because the PrtScn key doesn't generate a KeyDown event so I'm not sure how the application manages to dismiss the menu before the KeyUp event. You have to really go out of your way to capture a KeyDown event with PrtScn.

All really good questions. Things that I think are gnawing at my head too. I believe the library has computers. There are Starbucks and McD's nearby, which have free wi-fi (with my AT&T info). Again, not sure how much pain it is to set up each time. The only advantage to having the ipad would be to compose the emails from home (or where ever), then when she gets in email range, send/receive. But. Not sure how savvy she is to do that.

It's sounding like it would be more pain than it's worth. Maybe I should just make the iPad2 the work one, and the iPad 3 the home one. Seems so selfish.

I didn't write the code, so I can't explain it. I didn't architect it, so I can't justify it. But i can describe it, and...that's what it does. Sorry I can't be more technical, but I don't want that to get in the way of my software request, if anyone can help.

I haven't tried it myself, but I have heard mention of [link] Screenhunter Free at work.

Thanks, DCJ. I'll give that a shot tomorrow.

So, anyone develop web pages for the iPad?

So I put this in the html head:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />

Which is supposed to make the webpage take up the full screen on any iOS device, right? But it doesn't--just 1/4th of the screen, and there's whitespace that fills up the rest of the screen. (ETA: It works correctly on an iPhone.) If I shrink the page down, the whitespace shrinks too, and no longer fills the whole screen.

What am I missing?

Is this the problem, Tom? [link]

Interesting. But I don't think so.

If I change

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />

to

<meta name="viewport" content="width=480" />

the page now fills the full screen, as it's about 480 px wide. So it is responding to the setting. But then it's too big to fit on an iPhone.

Hmmm... I still seem to be confused on this "viewport" thing....

Well, I just ran my page in web-app (fullscreen) mode and I do see the issue you linked to.

This is just a demo--not sure if we want web-app mode or not.
