A feature I totally missed before and only saw after reading the db8 tutorial. If you have a service that you call different methods of, you probably do what I used to do:
enyo.kind({
...
components:[
{name:"downloader",kind:"PalmService",service:"palm://com.palm.downloadmanager/"}
...
]
...
startDownload:function(){
this.$.download.call …Yet again, here's another bit of Enyo goodness. Inspired by Preware, I really love it when an app accepts keyboard input straight off the bat. I don't have to click anything, I can just start typing and it knows what I want to do. That's what JustType is on the …continue
Having trouble posting your app or an update to your app using the provided sdltts? Either you're missing features or you want/need a callback from the method when it's done, or maybe you want only a few text strings in …continue
I recently worked on re-creating this week's Weekly App Hack's hybrid plugin, sdltts. It was compiled for the device and basically closed-source, only mentioning the library it used. I'm going to post the necessary code to make it later, but first I'm posting what I found to be the …continue
Recently, Chrome went to 14 and many people got background updates to it. Turns out that in Chrome 13, rendering of -webkit-transforms changed handling of z-index's.

With multiple screen sizes available for Enyo apps, it's likely that you want a single Enyo app to work on both phones, tablets, and anything else that may come out (HP or otherwise). The code below is a simple way of separating tablets from phones, but can easily be upgraded …continue
I've sent in a patch for slightly enhanced mixin support for Enyo, but since I have another post depending on that support I'll post the patch here until it gets included.
This patch mainly provides the ability to have mixins that handle events and allows them to join with kinds …continue
I've noticed that there's no "submit" button feature in WebOS Inputs like there are in normal web forms. If you have a input type="submit" in your form, pressing Enter in any form input will automatically press that button because that makes sense.
However, in WebOS there is no such …continue
Turns out, most SlidingPanes have a Toolbar with a GrabButton on the bottom so it seems like SlidingPane should have an option to automatically include one such Toolbar. Since it doesn't, I've written a quick kind that creates a toolbar with the little GrabButton for adding to the components of …continue
In WebOS, services live as long as you have an outstanding call with them plus 30 seconds. Once that ends, the service is closed and any data it was storing temporarily is gone. Therefore, since I have an app that needs the username/password of my user for all requests …continue
