Does mobile safari use UIWebView class?

I have error in a phonegap application and in my website when I open it in chrome browser in IOS. I suspect that it happens because of chrome and phonegap use UIWebView class. But there is no errors in mobile safari. So, I would like to know if safari use this class too.
No. Chrome does indeed contain a UIWebView, but most of MobileSafari is built on WebKit.

hyperlinks are not working in iOS simulator

I have a jquery mobile web app with hyperlinky a tags. Now in all browsers(chrome, safari, opera, firefox, chrome mobile on android) the links are working, but in my xCode iPhone simulator (up to date), it shows the :active css state but it don't redirects to the page.

Thanks in advance :)

Force open link in Safari (not Chrome or another browser) from HTML5 app on iPhones and iPads?

Let's say someone is viewing our website with Chrome on his/her iPhone. Is there a way to force a link to open in Safari instead of Chrome? We would like to do this to help users install our HTML5 app. We know application URLs can open specific apps. Does Safari have its own application URL?
Thanks.

Debugging web app in iPad Simulator

I am developing a web app for iPad and testing it on Safari on Mac and Safari on iPad Simulator. Now there are some issues with CSS in iPad Simulator which work quite well in Safari on Mac.
Now my question is,
Is there a powerful debugging tool for Safari in iPad Simulator?
When running safari in an XCode device simulator, the desktop Safari (v6) Develop menu shows those devices. From there, you can fire up the developer tools (DOM browser etc.) for the mobile browser. This helped me debug an mobile safari css issue without hardware.
Note: As of iOS6 this is not the correct way of doing remote debugging, leaving this answer for historical reasons but you should look into remote inspection with Safari, here is a good article: http://jeffreysambells.com/2012/09/22/ios-safari-web-inspector
Have a look at this, (a bash script I wrote) https://gist.github.com/2241976. It will allow you to open the iPad simulator and run Webkit's remote inspector, which will look just like this.
iWebInspector is quite a powerful tool for the iOs simulator's Safari.
It uses the same inspector as Chrome and it works nicely (I've used it myself and found it really helpful).
From their website
iWebInspector is a free tool to debug, profile and inspect web
applications running on iOS Simulator (iPhone or iPad). You can check
resources, see and change HTML & CSS, use breakpoints on JavaScript
code, create charts and more just as if you were on Safari for
Desktop, Chrome or Firebug.
It works for any web in Safari -the web browser-, for a chrome-less
webapp (full-screen) and also for apps using UIWebView -including
PhoneGap applications-.

What options for web site development for iPad are available?

I'm developing a site one of the targets of which is iPad.
What options do I have to debug client side (DOM inspector, style viewer/editor, javascript console, network analyzer - all thing every major desktop browser has) when viewing the site from iPad?
I'm not looking for some kind firebug lite, or anything that makes me to debug site from iPad itself. (This would be too tedious.) Instead, what I'm after is some sort of remote debugger for mobile Safary, allowing me to work with sites opened on iPad from a desktop machine, or an iPad emulator with same capabilities. I know there is the emulator that comes in bundle with official SDK, but does it have such means?
It's the first time I'm facing the problem, so not to blame!
This is what I'm aware of:
weinre (But does it really work?)
Check out BugSense and their HTML5 (javascript) installation
