Announcing HTML Client Support in Windows Azure Mobile Services

Scott Guthrie announced HTML client support for Windows Azure Mobile Services such that developers can begin using Windows Azure Mobile Services to build both HTML5/JS Websites and Apache Cordova/PhoneGap apps.

The two major changes in this update include:

  • New Mobile Services HTML client library that supports IE8+ browsers, current versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, plus PhoneGap 2.3.0+. It provides a simple JavaScript API to enable both the same storage API support we provide in other native SDKs and easy user authentication via any of the four supported identity providers - Microsoft Account, Google, Facebook, and Twitter.
  • Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support to enable your Mobile Service to accept cross-domain Ajax requests. You can now configure a whitelist of allowed domains for your Mobile Service using the Windows Azure management portal.

With this update Windows Azure Mobile Services now provides a scalable turnkey backend solution for your Windows Store, Windows Phone, iOS, Android and HTML5/JS applications.

    In all the blogs about the release of this alpha preview version, they said it works with phonegap and wp7.*, I have tried both, and neither works. It works fine when i run the download sample code from azure HTML, and run that on localhost:8000 . But when i try same code in PhoneGap HTML and run the application, its not working. The error i get is MobileServiceClient is undefined. So MobileServices.Web-1.0.0.min.js script file is not working with html in phonegap as it shoud do....?
