First dual release is completed. And I am tired. Bunch of new features in both apps. 300+ new alloy names and bunch of new compositions as well. Key features are aliasing support for both apps and quick navigation menus for web app. Tested on all major browsers and seems to be ok. And now onto iphone version, which is about 20% done. Can't say I enjoy doing things over and over again, but promised...

Fixed few minor UI issues and added few dozen more alloy names and few more data corrections were made after one more pass through it. Tomorrow more testing and touchups and I think it's ready for Saturday release, along with the android app.

HTC specific fix, workaround for database installer failure on some HTC phones, including inspire. If database installation still fails, database recovery from the menu is now available. Special thanks goes to Ken, for helping out with debuggin the issue.

After much deliberation and contemplation, pools and such, I've finally made myself to get started on iphone version of the knife steel chart. I do more then enough of iphone programming at work, and frankly, Android programming is much more fun, but alas, there's a lot of knife nuts with iphones(sadly)... ~30% of the smartphone users in knife world are on iphone, 60% on android, so I figured, what the hell... Updates as I progress. The thing is, this all coincided with web knife steel chart 4.0 development, which requires database schema change, so I have to work simultaneously on web version, android steel chart 3.0 and now iphone as well. Tablet versions will follow next year I guess.

Fixed navigation problem, preventing correct handling of the links in the alloy notes section. Market glitched just when I was updating the apk, the new version got picked up, but for some reason the date stays old, from 2.21. You may have to download the updated version manually.

Modern browsers still suck in terms of adhering to specs. Fixed damn object tag, seemed to work ok, but no, now broke in Firefox. Got that worked out too. I still hate coding if/else etc based on browser. Even such a basic tag is not the same across the main browsers. Chrome started acting up on java applets too. Hangs every other time, and their runtime is slow as hell...
