Description
One of the big differences between a native mobile and a mobile web UI is the ability of native UIs to support gestures. It's common for native apps to support various swipe gestures. A swipe in from the left may open a menu. A swipe up from the bottom of the screen may open a different panel. Native apps often support two finger pinching or spreading.
This high-level of touch support is lacking in web apps however. The javascript api's typically support touchstart, touchmove and touchend. So gesture support is usually limited to scrolling and carousels.
A native-web gesture support layer could be implemented in the ICEmobile container, which captured multi-point gestures and allowed the web layer to register callbacks for gestures, which could then respond to different gestures accordingly.
