I am creating an app which generates conjugations for Japanese verbs.
I would much like the generated text to have the ability that people can highlight the text to copy it to clipboard on an iOS device if they need to.
So far I am able to make it work with android OS, windows, OSX and browser.
For some reason though I am unable to get it to work in iOS.
The only option I have enabled is the "Highlightable" option in flash and with this small option enabled it works in every single platform but iOS.
Has anyone else run into this issue? Is it a limitation of iOS?

I am looking to add functionality to an existing Cordova-based tablet app that runs on iOS (intention is to allow Android later hence Cordova).
We would like to add the ability for users to print a QR code from the app, we know how to generate it.
I am aware of the various libraries out there such as:
https://github.com/don/BluetoothSerial
https://github.com/katzer/cordova-plugin-printer
https://github.com/srehanuddin/Cordova-Plugin-Bluetooth-Printer
Does anyone have any experience with this and can shed some light on how best to achieve this?
As I understand it we could simply send the appropriate commands to the printer, however it seems to me that this might not be possible due to AirPlay restrictions?
Referring to a different article/question:
Delphi XE4 iOS open email program not working
Same symptoms apply to my situation. When debugging in the iPhone simulator, I can paste into the Safari Web Browser, 'mailto:info#example.com?Subject=test' (or whatever I desire, really) and the simulator then proceeds to open the Apple Mail Client with the specified parameters.
BUT, in my app when using the line:
OpenURL('mailto:info#example.com?Subject=test');
Well, nothing happens. I can replace the MailTo text with a web address such as, StackOverflow.com, and it works perfectly fine, but just doesn't when attempting to open the mail client.
Using Delphi Xe4, developing an app for iOS. Using the Apple.Utils framework provided with the Delphi Samples.
Am I missing anything? Or is there an easier way to open the mail client?
No one responded. There was an easier way - using an action sheet to perform the same sharing functionality that we see in just about all Apple software products. It is located in an example in the Delphi Samples. You can send text, email, etc. etc. Also can attach pictures.
Hint:
The share feature functionality does not work in the simulator but does actually work on devices.
I have read all of the posts about c9 being a very poor experience on a touch device but most of the posts are based on being unable to access the file structure (dbl click).
Has anyone been able to use the terminal from an iPad keyboard? I have a light rails app that I can leave most of the tabs open (saving the dbl click issue) but cannot use a KB in the terminal which means being unable to run the rails console or my app easily.
The ACE editor used in Cloud9 does not properly work on mobile devices yet. There is an issue open to add that but as far as I know it is not currently being worked on. We are considering to create a stripped down IDE for mobile at some point but we don't have an ETA for it yet.
I'm developing something like file manager for remote filesystem with some basic operations including transferring file(s) between server and iPad and viewing them.
In order to be useful I need my app to open all types of files from other apps (like Mail, Safari, etc.) via "Open in.." dialog to get them into my app, i. e. Dropbox-like behaviour. When I use public.data and public.content, like it is described in this answer (and this), it sometimes work, but most of the time, it isn't. Moreover, iOS 6.1 simulator behaves nondeterministic regarding file handling.
When I Run in Xcode and it launches simulator, it doesn't work. When I let simulator running, Stop in Xcode and then Run in Xcode, it suddenly work. When I completely quit simulator and Run in Xcode I get at start of this loop. Mysterious.
When I run app on physical iPad with iOS 6 and start Safari or Mail and go to some document or attachment in it, [Open in...] dialog appears including my app but tapping does nothing, no reaction.
My goal is to make it work for iOS from 5.1 up.
Base SDK: iOS 6.1
Target: 5.1
I'm rookie here on SO. Although I've read instruction how to write good questions, help me improve my question if you feel it is needed, please.

I am a rookie iOS developer trying to figure out this. Pardon me if I am asking basic question.
I need to set an unique identifier in the device (iphone or ipad) that can be read by the app (can be browser app or native app). Is this feasible ?
Reason being: the device needs to be uniquely identified. The user might be able to use the installed app or through browser as well.
Thx.
You can create a HTML element containing any amount of content and hide it with CSS. Sometimes I use an 'input' element just for that and read it with javascript. I think you use data-uri also.
