iOS App Rejection
Juan G. Hurtado
If you wish to build an HTML5 web app, you can do so and distribute it directly from your web site. It is not appropriate to submit an HTML5 web app to the App Store.

mimics a webpage therefore they advise you to put it on a server.
Beware of the taking "words" out of context.

My app is a real app, not just a webview of one online site. Maybe Apple didn't get app instructions right, (because it's a complex app), and was not able to deeply test it.I was just worried about the "It is not appropriate to submit an HTML5 web app to the App Store" stuff. But if PhoneGap has no problems with that, everything is fine. Rejection must have been for some missunderstading on using the app.

Alternatively, you may wish to consider building a web app using HTML5. HTML5 is the major new version of HTML and enables audio and video to play natively in the browser without requiring proprietary plug-ins. Using HTML5, web apps look and behave like native iPhone and iPad apps, and using HTML5's Offline Application Cache, your web apps work even when the device is offline. With web apps, you have flexibility to deliver as much or as little functionality as you desire.

app store. Im not sure why one of your apps is approved and the other
is not. If you want I could have a look at your app on iTunes as
well.

It seems jQuery Mobile UI is not so appealing to Apple Approval Team.
Probably you can revise it and use jQTouch instead. You can easily
converted it if you don't any modal dialogs.

I'm evaluating what UI framework is suitable in my project. I don't
believe apple review team reject app just because of jQuery Mobile
too.

that I could not implement is the modal dialog (popup form). JQM is up
to it. I could not still find a solution for this problem.
Click an icon on my map (OpenLayers map) and pop up with the
attributes of the icon (e.g a person - (Name, Address, etc.).
jqt.floaty is one suggestion to solve this problem on popup.
Devgeeks, have you implemented a jqt.floaty in your jQT app?
Thanks,

other thread. It looks and feel like a native app.
I just inspect the guts. It out to jQTouch. It seems a jQTouch
datazombies fork (tabBar / footer).
It is actually nicely done. Good job for ST Jobs using Phone and jQTouch.

jqtouch is better if you will only program for ios
