Developing and selling web apps listed on apple web apps and equivalents such as android, windows etc [closed]

Do i need to pay a developer's fee of 99$ per annum if i want to list my web app on the apple web app store, or any other place for that matter (android etc.)?





Can i ask user to come and pay for new features on my site through this web app? will I be breaching some archaic policy by doing that?





This web app is complete on its own but user might want to have extra features which come at a price of course!





Which merchant is the best for my basic needs. paypal comes to mind but is it my only option?





this is my hobby. I have a separate day time job which does not involve software development. what do i need to do as far as paying taxes (if any) is concerned. am i liable to pay taxes?





I do not want to create my own company etc. just because im developing this web app.





By the way, if you intend to reply on tax-related questions, please understand I reside in England.

    Since you're doing a web app I believe that you can get listed in the Apple Web App listings by just being a safari developer, which is free. Im not sure that android has such a place or Windows Mobile either which means your going to have to do a lot of the marketing of your web app yourself.

    In this case, you are not going to be bound by any of the "Laws" that govern the App Store, Android, or Windows Marketplace. You can charge whatever you want to "featured" functionality and nobody will scoff.

    As far as your taxes are concerned. You should talk to an accountant about any income that comes from the app as well as having to charge any sort of sales tax.

    Hope this answers your questions. Good luck with your app.

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

By User
I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

By User
The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome.
