I am new to PhoneGap and Mobile Application Development. I want to create an application using PhoneGap so that I can get Android, iOS, BlackBerry versions of the same app.
I have installed PhoneGap in my windows 7 Desktop using tutorials given in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqFpfrUrMM4
I have some questions regrading PhoneGap:
Can we create multiple pages(HTML Files) or we only have index.html single file?
Can we use jQuery UI plugins, Mobile jQuery UI and other iQuery plugins? Will PhoneGap cloud service be able to convert to mobile app?
I have created Hello World example and uploaded zip file to PhoneGap and it converted to Android, Windows app but for iOS app it shows error certificate(P12) and provisioning file. I have windows 7, how can I get that legally? (My friend has Mac book. I can use it)
I want to launch app to Play market and iTunes but I have no idea what I need to do after uploading zip to phonegap.
I will really appreciate if you can provide me with the suggestions, steps that I need to take or links that would ease whole process.
Thanks!
You can make multi-page apps with PG. All of my apps are.
You can use those plugins. If they work on a regular web site, they'll work in PhoneGap. PhoneGap Build should be able to package all the scripts as one app, as long as the content is within their guidelines.
You need a Mac to get it. This page gives a lot of directions: http://centuryware.wordpress.com/2014/10/30/how-to-create-and-test-ios-apps-on-phonegap-build/
You'll need to sign up for a Developer account at https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action to upload an app there, and a Google Play account at http://developer.android.com/index.html to upload to that store. Once you sign up, read their docs. It can get pretty involved on the Apple side.

I have a few queries about Webview app and uploading it to Play store-
There is a php/mysql webpage using javascript, css, html.
1) If we create a Webview app for this webpage using Android Development Kit, would the Webview App work only on Android phones even if its a plain webview ?
2) If not, what other platform is best to create a Webview app that works well on all the devices(Android, iPhone, Windows).
3) If the above webview app (created on ADK) doesn't work on all the devices (Android, iPhones, Window) and suppose the apk file is created using Android development kit initially and uploaded to play store with a key, can the new webview app apk file be updated on palystore if we use another kit other than ADK (like PhoneGap, etc).
4) Is it possible that ADK Webview App doesnt work properly on all Andorid versions having some formatting issues. If yes, is there anything that we can add to work it well even in older android versions as well.
These queries might be very basic but I am new to Apps, so it woud be great if they can be replied with a brief description.
You can upload webView app in Apple AppStore with Authentic WebURL. you will need to submit information that define that you are the Owner of that Website. Otherwise it will be reject by Apple.
I'm developing an app for Firefox OS and I would like to test it on my Android phone. Is it possible? I only found articles about installing apps from the Firefox Marketplace.
I could connect my Android device to the WebIDE, but it only makes possible to debug web pages on Firefox for Android, and does not work for uploading apps through it.
You can publish your app from any computer with a web server. You just need a single html file and a "mini" manifest, then you access that page from you phone (using firefox for android, of course) and you will be able to install the app as you would install it from the marketplace.
Reference
The Testing Your Native Android App blog post describes using the mozilla-apk-cli to do this.
(Eventually that documentation should migrate to the How can I test/debug APKs? section of the Open web apps for Android page.)
I am a .NET guy, so I am developing apps for WP7.
On Windows marketplace, they do not approve applications if it only opens a
WebBrowser control and a mobile website in it. You have to write main functionality with Silverlight, C# and XAML.
For android I just want to use m.myapplication.com in a WebView control,
so as soon as you will open app it will show that url to you.
Will this application be OK for android market? Or will they require me to write
java code to fill the content?
P.S: I also wonder is there any basic android template that I can take for eclipse, and fill url for my mobile website, and it will run on my phone?
There is no "review" process for any apps that get uploaded to the market (other than checking to see that they are signed with a valid release key)
So yes you will be allowed to upload your app to the market. Even if it is just a webview pointing to a mobile site.
I know of no such template, but that doesn't mean that one doesn't exist. if you search around online for things like "Android WebView example" and have worked your way through the Hello World tutorial you should be able to implement your webview without too much hassle.
Short version:
Are there any web sites people have developed that harness PhoneGap functionality that are available on the web?
Long version:
PhoneGap allows developers to package a web site inside a native app. It also allows developers to have a PhoneGap webview embedded as part of their application. They can then point this PhoneGap integrated webview at any url, and use it like a browser.
I cannot develop web sites myself so I want to know if there are any web sites on the internet that use PhoneGap features.
Thanks
Not wrong. In order to access the Phonegap API the Phonegap App must be installed on the device. The content inside the App can point to a website, that's correct. But that does not change the fact that you need to download and install the App first.
I have two Phonegap Apps in the Apple App Store so I know what I am speaking of.
PhoneGap has a section on their website dedicated to mobile apps that were built using it:

There's two kinds of Chrome Web Store (CWS) apps: packaged and hosted. Packaged ones don't have a URL and can only run inside Chrome. Hosted apps are just regular web applications hosted at a URL and can in theory run from any browser, provided that it supports the features needed by the app.
There are a few ways to embed web apps into an Android application, the most popular of which is PhoneGap. Here's a nice getting started guide. http://www.phonegap.com/start/
