Web and WebWorks Development

[zahirw]

The app I'm developing in WW has terribly poor performance. Right now I'm just testing the designs which are currently static. Yet the 2 pages I've loaded into the app load very slowly and the memory maid keeps kicking in.

This is my config file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<widget xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:rim="http://www.blackberry.com/ns/widgets" version="1.0.0.0">
<name>Hello World</name>
<author>My name</author>
<description>Hello World location display</description>
<icon src="icon.png"/>
<content src="register.html"/>
<feature id="blackberry.system" />
<rim:navigation mode="focus" />
<feature id="blackberry.ui.dialog" />
<rim:loadingScreen backgroundColor="#000000" foregroundImage="images/loader.gif" onFirstLaunch="true" onRemotePageLoad="true"/>
</widget>

Also, there seems to be a browser bounce with an overscroll even though I'm using viewports with density dpi.

Any advice?

it will always overscroll as long as the items on your screen are over the 1024 x 600 px size. This is a browser issue. I am not suree but mayeb try changing background colour to black. Ive tried it but i never got it to work. Let me know how that works for u

I'm using fluid html so it actually scales to fit the browser perfectly.

Also, any tips on performance?

[ignites]

it depends on ur code...

Turns out focus navigation, which is an experience enhancer is actually a comple performance killer

Best bet? Do away with it and still use mouseover highlights!

I have that question too, my mouseover highlight(this); very slow and luggish, I don't know how I can increase perfomance speed of my app.

Definitely choosing the Web Work platform is the worst thing that I've could do. The performance is very poor, I have flickering while navigate between page, I can't use focus navigation (it crashes the app).

I dont think that I develop another app for BB.
