i have an app that i want to post an item on a user facebook.
i have found a method to do this, which on paper works - but on windows mobile it doesnt!
i have code that generates a html document with the relevent java script in it to trigger the FB.UI. This Java code opens up a popup window to enable the post to happen, the problem is that if i open up the generated html document in internet explorer it wont work because it automatically blocks pop-ups. Alternativly if i had a web browser control to my app it works, however the page is zoomed in way too much and theres no scroll bars or anyway of navigating the page!
i appreciate any help or suggestions. Using managed .net code (vb)
well, I've been working oonon a Facebook app and well. . Honestly, the only way to do it is using raw http socket communication with custom UI. the webbrowser object is pathetic at best. if you find another solution i would be very interested in knowing what you did. if you want help with Facebook communication, pm me and ill see what i can do to help

Can anyone recommend an offline blogging client for windows smartphone?
I dont have a blog yet so not too concerned with compatibility with blog hosts etc.
I'm only after a few features:
1. must run offline then upload at end.
2. must be able to attach a photo.
Anyone done this?
Cheers
I think a lot of blogs also make use of updating via email.. ie. you email an address and the email is posted as the blog entry, blogger.com comes to mind
thanks for that, yes i've tried and it works, although i'm trying to post a photo also.
Ideally by attaching to the email, blogger won't let you post a photo this way, it just drops the file and posts only the text.
Try getting a blog on Wordpress.
Wordpress has couple of extension reading incoming mail and adding pics as attachments in the posts.
Had done this time ago...
Requirements:
1) Blog which runs on Wordpress
2) Access to the server via FTP so to install plugins
3) Modify a bit the plugin scripts (PHP) so to have exactly what you need.
4) A very difficult to guess email address
...and you're done.
Check Wordpress codex for the mail & attachment plugin.
In the meantime I'll try to see if the modified plugin is still somewhere on my HD home and if found will post it here.

Hi,
I am using NFSFAN's V15 ROM and I also use a gmail java app that accesses my gmail account. Let me first start out by saying that the reason I use the java gmail app is because I cannot find a .cab file installation version of it and I need to preserve email message threading. I know most people use the default mail client but I sometimes get 20 or more responses to one email message and it creates a huge inbox mess, hence this is only one of the main reasons why I use the gmail java app and not the default mail client. Now that thats out of the way, here is my problem:
When I am in the java gmail app and reviewing a message with a website hyperlink in it, if I click on the hyperlink, I immediately get a Yes/No pop up dialog box asking me if its okay to open that website. If you select yes or no the dialog box reappears immediately and the same loop starts ever until I am forced to take the battery out and restart the phone. Can anyone fix this? I wonder if IE Mobile 6 is what is causing the problem, it works fine on my stock ROM that has the older version of IE Mobile but it will not work on the WM6.5 ROM that uses IE Mobile 6. I really want to point it to use Opera Mobile instead of IE Mobile 6 but it does not give me that option. Yes, I have Opera Mobile set as my default browser and yes the "Set Opera as default browser" option within Opera Mobile is checked on but this java program just will not open Opera and I am very puzzled by this problem. I cannot find anyone talking about this issue on any other threads for the Vogue, here at XDA, so I decided to create this thread. Does anyone know how to fix this?
PS - Here is a download link to the java gmail app if anyone wants to take a crack at this:

Thanks

Reading this a bit late for research but here's the good news.
Microsoft has announced that the new mobile office and outlook exchange shall incorporate threaded email.
I had a link to it to download the new outlook mobile, I'll search for it again and post if I find it.
Sorry up front if this is posted in the wrong location...
I am having a problem, I don't know if its the ROM (FreeGS3) or the way the browsers are configured. I have used Firefox, Default, and Dolphin, I always set them to "Desktop" mode.
Here is my problem, I go to Facebook website and I get a redirected away from what I have discovered to need to be "https" instead it sends me to "http" with gives me an html text page. If I go back up to the web address line and add the "s" in front of the "http" web address it then displays the correct web page as it should.
Can someone please tell me or direct me as to how to fix this???
It is driving me crazy...
Further Clarifications...

To further clarify Facebook requires the secured web address when navigating after log in. Not sure why my browser would not direct me properly execept maybe for this reason...
From Google Development..."Redirects and User-Agent Detection
Automatic redirection
When a website is configured to serve desktop and mobile browsers using different URLs, webmasters may want to automatically redirect users to the URL that best serves them. If your website uses automatic redirection, be sure to treat Googlebot and Googlebot-Mobile just like any other user-agent and redirect them appropriately.
Irrelevant redirects
A common issue is redirecting users to irrelevant pages. For example, if a user visits example.com/article29, your website should redirect them to the equivalent mobile-optimized page, such as m.example.com/article29, instead of to the m.example.com homepage. This makes sure that incoming links and users' bookmarks work across devices."

Please feel free to elaborate, it would be appreciated...

I think you need to use WebView which has many features like web browser.
Check android docs about it on this link & this link
You can also check this discussion on stackoverflow, I think it will be useful for you.
ok but webview is only for viewing the web and cannot access telephony to send the sms.
Actually what i wanted was to read data from a server and populate an android app and create a listview, then use the list of items and make them clickable for the sms event which i think could only be done by native android programe or i could use phonegap and jquery mobile. but ty anywayz
My next question would be about improving the media players for android.
Hi,
There is a feature wherein, one can print to pdf from any app which has this feature emabled. Like say from any mail app, one can print an email and system print dialogue opens up and provides an option as "Save to PDF". Earlier this used to save the print in a pdf format. But now clicking on Save icon results in an error "couldn't create file". Is this only happening to me or is it not available anymore on any android device. Can someone provide an alternative wherein I can save certain information via Save to PDF feature.
Many apps I tried from playstore doesn't work as it was available earlier. As soon as I share a web page from chrome to print, the web page doesn't get loaded into the app for pages which are session based which are mostly transactional confirmation pages. Like say making payment for any service or product and trying to take a print of that to save as pdf.
Would be thankful if anyone can help.
Sounds like a bug on Xiaomi's part. Not sure there's a solution. Sorry
I think turning on MIUI Optimisation should do the thing.
