Counterpart to -application:openURL:sourceApplication:annotation:

iOS SDK 4.2 includes a new UIApplicationDelegate method called application:openURL:sourceApplication:annotation: . It is a replacement for application:handleOpenURL: and offers more information about the calling application: not only do we get the bundle identifier of the calling app, but also, in the annotation argument,




A property-list object supplied by the source application to communicate information to the receiving application.




Great, this should offer a lot of opportunities for a more direct interaction between multiple third-party apps!



The only problem is: how do I invoke this mechanism on the side of the calling app? -[UIApplication openURL:] seems unchanged and does not offer any way to pass a property list along with the URL. Do you know how a calling app could do that with iOS SDK 4.2?

    You need to use the new Document Interaction classes, specifically you can send this data via the annotation property of UIDocumentInteractionController. See also:

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.

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.
