How to make angular 7 application compatible with microsoft edge browsers? - angular7

We have an angular 7 application that we have been developing for a few months now. Our application is compatible with IE, Chrome, Firefox so far, now we're testing for Microsoft edge browsers. The application will not run in older MS Edge browsers. The latest version of edge works fine but one of our testers is using an older version of edge that needs to be compatible with the application. The version she is using is
Microsoft Edge 44.17763.1.0
Microsoft EdgeHTML 18.17763

"loading" text showing in phonegap android application in jQuery mobile

I am in the very beginning stage of an android application in phone gap/ jQuery mobile
In eclipse I created a proj and all. Working in my device.
My problem is a "loading" text is showing in my application at footer position.
When I removed the jquery-mobile.js, then its not showing "loading". My code as follows.
How to remove this "loading" or is there anything missed in my code ?
Thanks in advance .
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<title>PhoneGap</title>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="phonegap-1.0.0.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="js/jquery.mobile-1.1.1.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css">
</head>

First of all you were missing the jquery mobile css file in your code. Adding it will make your "loading" look better
Secondly as i see in your code that you have used phonegap 1.0.0 which is very old. You should use the latest version of phonegap which is now called as cordova and the latest version number is 2.0.0 Try using that as its awesome.

Phonegap + jQuery Mobile + Blackberry Pitfalls

I'm trying to migrate a Phonegap app wich uses jQuery Mobile to Blackberry. When I start the app, which runs fine on Android and iOS. I see no styles, javascript whatsoever.
I figured, that Blackberry webworks apps use different file paths than iOs and Android. I find this file path thing a bit odd in general.
Like when you use a file path in an HTML file like for <img src="res/img/..."> the normal relative path is fine for Android and iOS. BUT if you specify a file path in JS you need "file:///android_asset/www/res/img" for Android while "res/img/" is fine for iOS. But anyways... what's the case with Blackberry here?
Do external JavaScript and CSS files require something like the following?
<link rel="stylesheet" href="local:///lib/jquerymobile/jquery.mobile.min.css" />
or should it work the normal way by just specifinging the relative path?
Besides that, are there other pitfalls? Like I heard about file naming issues when using "dashes", "underscores", whatsoever.
Would be great if someone with exerience with Phonegap apps for BB could share their experiences.
This is what i have:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, height=device-height,
initial-scale=1.0, 'maximum-scale=1.0, 'minimum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
<!-- PhoneGAP -->
<script src="json2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="phonegap-1.0.0.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- JQuery Mobile -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/jquery.mobile-1.0rc1/jquery.mobile-1.0rc1.min.css" />
<script src="resources/jquery-1.6.4.min.js"></script>
<script src="resources/jquery.cookie.js"></script>
<script src="resources/jquery.mobile-1.0rc1/jquery.mobile-1.0rc1.min.js"></script>
That´s the order that works, check the src attribs to know where you must copy the jqm library.
Good luck!

Application manifest working on android, iPhone, firefox, opera, but not on iPad

I'm having trouble getting a real simple html5 cache manifest to work on the iPad.
It does however work on all other devices and browsers I've tested.
Are there any bugs in the iPad safari implementation or other limitations to the iPad or am I missing something ?
I'll include the relevant source files.
index.html
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html manifest="example.appcache">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>Hello</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
</body>
</html>
example.manifest
CACHE MANIFEST
# 2010-06-18:v2
# Explicitly cached 'master entries'.
CACHE:
index.html
style.css
# Resources that require the user to be online.
NETWORK:
I've read that on iPad the manifest file must be named "cache.manifest" and that you must specify it as a relative path like <html manifest="cache.manifest"> and not something like
<html manifest="/foo/bar/cache.manifest">. So, if it's working in everything else but just no in the iPad, check/try those two things.

BlackBerry WebWorks with OS 5, text not showing

I'm at the very early stages of writing a BlackBerry app using WebWorks. I'm aiming at mainly OS6 devices (Torch), but I need it to be compatible with OS5 for a small number of users who'll be using older devices. As far as I'm aware, WebWorks should work on OS5, however I have created a basic app with a hyperlink, and the text doesn't show on the OS5 simulator (it works fine on the OS6 simulator). All it shows is a blank screen. I've tried to just put some text on the app (i.e. not in hyperlink tags) and this doesn't show either.
HTML file as follows:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" id="viewport" content="height=device-height,width=device-width,user-scalable=no" />
<title>My App</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="jscript" src="http://localhost/PubInfo/scripts.js" />
</head>
<body>
Click to show device model.
</body>
</html>
You'll notice the only unusual thing I've done (and this is reflected in the config.xml to load the index.htm) is to reference the script file from localhost so I can amend the app without recompiling, again this works fine in OS6 so I don't think it's this that is causing the problem.
I'm developing using the WebWorks Plugin for Visual Studio on Windows 7 (x64). Apart from referencing the files from localhost, everything else is default, i.e. as it is set up when you create a new project.
Has anybody come across a similar problem, and if so what was your workaround? Any help would be appreciated.
Its because your script is not well written (completed):
Also update your meta tags.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<title>My App</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="jscript"
src="http://localhost/PubInfo/scripts.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
Click to show device model.

iPad Home Screen Web App Failure

We've got an ipad web app that needs all the screen real estate it can get. The plan is to use the "add to home screen" functionality once the app is done. However, we've run into a major issue when launching the app via the home screen. When using the HTML5 doctype, the page simply seems to render as plain text (none of the stylesheets or javascript files are loaded). Instead, using the XHTML 1.0 Transitional Doctype causes the page to render correctly, but we're using jQuery Mobile, which requires an HTML5 Doctype to work.
I've made attempts to simply use 'full screen' meta tags and such, but they don't seem to work either. This is the current state of our header code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<!--<!DOCTYPE html>-->
<html lang="en">
<head runat="server">
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0" />
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style" content="black-translucent" />
<title>PAGE TITLE</title>
<link href="favicon.png" rel="icon" type="image/png" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a4/jquery.mobile-1.0a4.min.css" />
<!-- cut other stylesheets and javascript files being loaded -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/Vertex.Web/Content/style/tablet/tablet.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
From the research I've done, it sounds like the ipad uses a web.app instead of safarimobile.app when it launches from the home screen. I'm wondering if this is at least part of the problem. One other thought is that the ipad is trying to use a local cache when launching from the home screen, and it's just not liking the relative paths or external URLs when loading stylesheets and javascript.
Fun fact: using both Doctypes in the page will cause correct rendering the first time we open up the page from the home screen, but further attempts will fail due to a parse error (which is expected, since it's a terrible, terrible solution)
