ChildBrowser Android

First you need to get ready with the phonegap running properly.It's here. First download the source from here

Now follow these procedure:
 1. To install the plugin, move www/childbrowser.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html file after phonegap<version>.js.

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="phonegap<version>.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="childbrowser.js"></script>
2. Copy the image files folder www/childbrowser to your project's www folder.Here you can edit the code or add any other files, but keep the folder named "ChildBrowser" as it is. Because, it is being referenced from others locations.
3. Create a directory within your project called "src/com/phonegap/plugins/childBrowser" and copy "src/com/phonegap/plugins/childBrowser/ChildBrowser.java" into it.

3.1. If you would like to add these folder(childBrowser folder with file ChildBrowser.java) into your existing 'src' folder, then there are some minor changes. Open ChildBrowser.java and change the package name to the relevant one.
4. In your res/xml/plugins.xml file add the following line:

<plugin name="ChildBrowser" value="com.phonegap.plugins.childBrowser.ChildBrowser"/>

4.1. If you followed the step-3.1, ie., if you added the folder elsewhere, change the "value" tag.

5. Customize the links as per your need and build the project.

Mac Yosemite : Ugly turned out to be Uglier and Ugliest

Most of the times, you get stuck on boot logo. I've seen complaints regarding it saying that fellow members are ignorant of it and they deny such possibility, even though many are still facing it. Workarounds suggested by our online friends: Just reboot your mac as many times it takes to your desktop. Boot into safe mode, by holding SHIFT and then reboot. Comment your workaround below, mine is the first one. If you are still on Mavericks, be there till Apple provides a fix for this.

JavaScript - Singleton Pattern

The singleton design pattern is probably the simplest and most common pattern in JavaScript. So why should you use the singleton pattern? Encapsulation of members & functions Creates its own Namespace A singleton is a single instance object Encourages code reuse Improves readability because you can logically organise your code The point of a singleton is to only have one instance. A shopping cart is a good example of something that you may want only a single instance of at one time. The simplest form of Singleton is an object literal. This loose form of Singleton cannot be instantiated. All of the members are now accessible through the Singleton variable, accessible through dot notation. var myCart = {     self: this ,     totalCost: 0,     totalQty: 0,     cart: {},     getCart: function (){ },     updateCart: function (){ } }; alert( "Total cost: ...
