Displaying a password or text entry prompt on the iPhone
Writing your own iPhone or iPod touch app, and wondering how to create an alert like this? Check out the sample code below. I needed to display a password prompt in Delivery Status touch and quickly found that there was no ideal way to do it. There are some unsupported methods, but the workaround below—adding a UITextField as a subview of the alert—is the proper method for a third party app, according to Apple. Aside from the basic technique of adding a UITextField as a subview, there… Read more »
A Preview of Delivery Status touch 2.0
Above: a sneak peek at Delivery Status touch 2.0. Tapping the icon on the left side of a delivery will show its full details right in the app. Delivery Status touch has been available for just over a month now, and we’ve had quite a few emails with suggestions already. I actually had a lengthy to do list before I even submitted the initial release to Apple, and most of the things people have asked for are already on that list. I’m very happy with version 1.0, but I very much consider it a… Read more »
Delivery Status touch has been submitted to Apple!
Delivery Status touch (for iPhone and iPod touch) is complete—I sent it off to Apple last night. Hopefully it will appear in the App Store next week, but don’t be surprised if it takes longer.

This initial release is just the beginning. Assuming it sells well, I already have a big list of… Read more »
Welcome to Junecloud!
When I first started running my own business full time a few years back, I really wasn’t sure how long it would last. It’s been stressful, it’s been hard work, but it’s also been fun and rewarding. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a lot of great people. I’ve also spent more and more time on my software—it started out as a hobby, but now I’m making a fair amount of income just in donations. (Thank you!) It’s clear now that I’m in this for the long haul, and I won’t be giving up my… Read more »
Using Junecode for a site that isn’t a blog
In reply to this entry, Nathan asked: Had to give this a [go]. Some really slick stuff, and a nice simple admin interface, but would I be correct in assuming this is more intended as a “blogging platform” rather than a proper CMS? As far as I can see it’s all about posting entries, and there’s no apparent way of setting up pages, in a site tree, with possibly multiple areas on the page to edit. Good question! It is designed around the basic concept of a blog… Read more »
