Pier mobile view

It was a new view using a new entry point. Should be easy to dispatch depending on user-agent using Seaside-REST or Apache. Was based on some Javascript/CSS iPhone library/theme. I think you can find it on my SqueakSource under the name iSea.

Ehh well, unfortunately it never made it quite out of the "hack" state. Great that you could pick it up. I guess it is not worth more than to demonstrate how to create an alternative web view.

All I did was:

PRPierFrame subclass: #JQMPierFrame ...

JQMPierFrame>>registerAsApplication: aString kernel: aKernel
        "self registerAsApplication: 'pier' kernel: (PRKernel instanceNamed:
'pier')"

        | app |
        app := JQMAdmin register: self asApplicationAt: aString.
        self configureApplication: app.
        app preferenceAt: #kernel put: aKernel.
        ^ app

I can't remember all the additional tweaks I had to make, to get a
mostly workable jQueryMobile look. (The Pier Browse view will need
re-working to fit in with JQM, so that's a TODO).

Unfortunately, the changes are one-way - i.e. the non-JQM web look is
not easily available. It would be great to be able to choose the view
based on user agent.

I can put together what I have as a PierAddon, and then we can try to
make it switchable based on user agent. Is there interest in doing this?
