New app with Jdrop support: haz.io

[Philipp Bosch]

Hi Steve,

last week I created a super simple website that uses Modernizr to
create a nice overview of the HTML5/CSS3 features supported in the
running browser. It's on http://haz.io/ and I see more and more people
accessing it from mobile devices. So I thought it would be a good idea
to add the ability to save the list of supported and unsupported
features to the cloud, and Jdrop is of course the perfect tool for
that.

It would be super cool if you would grant me access to the save
feature. Here's the required details:

App name: haz.io
Script URL: Well, it's not a bookmarklet but a website at http://haz.io/.
The script is located at http://haz.io/javascripts/master.js

And the source is available at https://github.com/philippbosch/haz .

I have already added a "Save to Jdrop" button to the bottom of the
page which of course doesn't work right now but you can use it to test
things out.

Thanks a lot!
Philipp

Hi, Philipp.

This is very cool. I have two main comments:

1. The integration doesn't work. The point of making it a bookmarklet
is to have some JS code that can display the results. I added haz.io
to the JDrop app registry and saved some data and made it public:
http://jdrop.org/public
If you click on the view icon (magnifying glass) you'll notice nothing
is displayed. That's because master.js does not have a callback
function to display the JSON data. You can, however, export the data
and verify that the data exists. So - if you really want this to work
please double-check the documentation and add that callback function.

2. This would really be better as a Browserscope user test:
http://www.browserscope.org/user/tests/howto
That way the results could be tabulated for all the different
browsers. I think this is what you really want. The docs there are
good but you can also refer to my write up:
