Firefox 30 ignores autocomplete="off"
for passwords, opting to prompt the user instead whether the password should be stored on the client. Note the following commentary from May 5, 2014:
- The password manager always prompts if it wants to save a password. Passwords are not saved without permission from the user.
- We are the third browser to implement this change, after IE and Chrome.
According to the Mozilla Developer Network documentation, the Boolean form element attribute autocomplete
prevents form data from being cached in older browsers.
<input type="text" name="foo" autocomplete="off" />
It's certainly possible to develop on a Windows machine, in fact, my first application was exclusively developed on the old Dell Precision I had at the time :)
There are three routes;
- Install OSx86 (aka iATKOS / Kalyway) on a second partition/disk and dual boot.
- Run Mac OS X Server under VMWare (Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) onwards, read the update below).
- Use Delphi XE4 and the macincloud service. This is a commercial toolset, but the component and lib support is growing.
The first route requires modifying (or using a pre-modified) image of Leopard that can be installed on a regular PC. This is not as hard as you would think, although your success/effort ratio will depend upon how closely the hardware in your PC matches that in Mac hardware - e.g. if you're running a Core 2 Duo on an Intel Motherboard, with an NVidia graphics card you are laughing. If you're running an AMD machine or something without SSE3 it gets a little more involved.
If you purchase (or already own) a version of Leopard then this is a gray area since the Leopard EULA states you may only run it on an "Apple Labeled" machine. As many point out if you stick an Apple sticker on your PC you're probably covered.
The second option is more costly. The EULA for the workstation version of Leopard prevents it from being run under emulation and as a result, there's no support in VMWare for this. Leopard server, however, CAN be run under emulation and can be used for desktop purposes. Leopard server and VMWare are expensive, however.
If you're interested in option 1) I would suggest starting at Insanelymac and reading the OSx86 sections.
I do think you should consider whether the time you will invest is going to be worth the money you will save though. It was for me because I enjoy tinkering with this type of stuff and I started during the early iPhone betas, months before their App Store became available.
Alternatively, you could pick up a low-spec Mac Mini from eBay. You don't need much horsepower to run the SDK and you can always sell it on later if you decide to stop development or buy a better Mac.
Update: You cannot create a Mac OS X Client virtual machine for OS X 10.6 and earlier. Apple does not allow these Client OSes to be virtualized. With Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) onwards, Apple has changed its licensing agreement in regards to virtualization. Source: VMWare KnowledgeBase

Yes, the video tag works. www.sup.com.tw has some (not all. The site is in Chinese though. Click the video links on the top right hand corner.)
Newer videos on this site works with IE 6/7/8 (through fall back to flash player, not tested on IE9), Firefox (had to render a separate ogv file since no h.264 support), Safari, Chrome, iPhone Safari, Android browser (the Desire model, didn't figure out the browser type).
Problem is with your encoding. Look at this page for detail instructions on how to convert:

The key I think is the profile of the h.264 conversion. Need to make sure you're converting to Baseline profile. Other profiles are not supported in iPhone.
I used the handbrakeCLI with Automator in Mac OS X to batch render.
