CIAL Browser is a try to implement a web browser close to MobileSafari for both iPhone and iPad ! The goal of this code is to provide a basis for implementing a web browser in your applications with some advanced features (customizable long taps menu, bookmark, …) !
Here is a list of features supported by CIALBrowser :
- Design close to Mobile Safari (iOS 4.x) native application (for both iPhone and iPad)
- Bookmark support (support for folders in bookmarks not implemented yet)
- Mail link support
- Print web page support
- Long tap handling (open or copy link)
What is missing to be closer to Mobile safari application :
- No multi pages support ( https://github.com/100grams/HGPageScrollView could be a good start point to add this)
- No blue progress bar over url text field
- No google search text field
- No save of history
- No proposal when entering an already visited URL in the address text field
- No support for server with untrusted certificates (need to ask the user what to do and to handle security exceptions)
- Not showing the title of the page and the lock in case of https pages
- on iPhone, the bar is locked on the screen (while it is disappearing when loading done in Mobile Safari)
Forks, patches and other feedback are more than welcome.
