Mobile Web Application ⽢甘苦談 othree @ MOPCON 2013
me • @othree • MozTW member • PhD Candidate of
civil engineering • F2E at HTC • https://blog.othree.net/
• Front End related • Experience sharing • No code
listing
Why Mobile • We are HTC....
Mozilla Summit 2013
Mozilla Summit 2013
PM Says “We are going to support mobile browsers”
What We Thought • Web Standards rule the web •
Not big problem
Reality • Browser have bugs • Standard implementation not the
same • Ambiguous standards • Hard to debug on some browser • Any issue might be new, not like IE
Reality • Browser have bugs • Standard implementation not the
same • Ambiguous standards • Hard to debug on some browser • Any issue might be new, not like IE Survey
What browser you use on smartphone?
What browser you use on smartphone? b) You install browser
by yourself a) Default browser from your phone
Android Browser
Android Browser • No updates anymore • Google use Chrome
as new default • Still exists: HTC, Samsung Galaxy S3
Mozilla Summit 2013
• Have bugs, issues
S4 Chrome?
S4 Chrome?
None
Suggestion to Users • Use Chrome or Firefox or …
So...
So... Issues
Issues • No repaint • Ghost Click • Toggle location
bar will not trigger resize • preventDefault not work on touch event • HTML5 Video
Repaint • To save power, browser will reduce repaint •
It predicts best timing for repaint, what to repaint • Prediction might fail
If Not Repaint • Things will disappear, in wrong position...etc
Force Repaint • Access some attribute related to layout •
ex: offsetHeight
Ghost Click • Mobile device don’t have real ‘click’ event
• Simulate ‘click’ using touch events • ‘click’ has 300ms delay after ‘touchend’
Avoid Lag • Use ‘touchend’ • tap.js https://github.com/alexgibson/tap.js • fastbutton
https://developers.google.com/mobile/ articles/fast_buttons
But.. • Android Browser • Trigger simulated click on wrong
element
Demo
Location Bar • 3 states in Android Browser • show
• hide • pinned
Location Bar • 3 states in Android Browser • show

None

None
What’s the Deal • Window size changes • Trigger ‘resize’
event? • Android 2: Yes • Android 3: No http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/events/resize_mobile.html
Fix • Time Interval to check window size change •
200ms interval will cause video not play • Manuel trigger resize handler when window size might change
preventDefault • Can used to prevent user scroll web page
• Not work on HTC browser • Not a bug, its spec...
HTML5 Video • Loop not work • Play event not
reliable • Duration update issue • iPhone, iPod have different implementation
Loop • Video loop not work on all mobile browser
• But you can call `play()` on ‘ended’ event
Video Bugs • ‘play’, ‘playing’ event not reliable • Duration
have default value • Won't stop when buffer ready even if `pause()` were called
MOPCON 2013
pause() not work play() download buffer pause() buffer ready, play
playing play
RobustVideo • A video wrapper to fix issues above •
https://github.com/othree/robust-video
iPhone • Open native player to play HTML5 video
iPhone • Open native player to play HTML5 video
None
None
Limitation • Video needs visible to be able to play
• Poster will not used to render in web page • No video event is available
Limitation • Video needs visible to be able to play
• Poster will not used to render in web page • No video event is available
Tip • Video element outside of window • Tap img(poster)
to trigger `video.play()`

it.”
