does phonegap have a physics library for game development

thanks

[reverend]

PhoneGap is just surfacing a chromeless browser window, along with
javascript hooks in to some device constructs, like accelerometer
data, GPS data, etc.

So things running in PhoneGap use Javascript/HTML/CSS/AJAX to drive
content. This means you could probably use Box2DJS to do your
physics...

Although, I just tried some Box2dJS content just in Mobile Safari.
First attempt crashed the browser. Second attempt worked, but only
at about 1.5 fps. So not looking likely. Might be able to scale
it down a bit, and do some simple stuff with it, but I don't know.

thanks so objective c is better for complicated games

No doubt Objective C is a better way to go for complicated stuff.
You can do a lot in PhoneGap, but any way you look at it, Javascript
is interpreted code, and Objective C is compiled. So anything that
takes massive amount of computation should probably be done in
Objective C.

Hi,

Whilst it's not a physics engine, I've found the geometry tutorials on this
page very useful: <http://www.kevlindev.com/geometry/index.htm>

Best,

Chris.
