移動Web應用開發框架 PhoneGap 1.4 發布，引入構建云服務

PhoneGap是一款HTML5平臺，通過它，開發商可以使用HTML、CSS及JavaScript來開發本地移動應用程序。因此，目前開發商可以只 編寫一次應用程序，然后在6個主要的移動平臺和應用程序商店(app store)里進行發布，這些移動平臺和應用程序商店包括：iOS、Android、BlackBerry、webOS、bada以及Symbian。

今天 PhoneGap 宣布了 1.4 版本的發布，該版本除了修復 1.3 中的許多 bug 之外，還引入了 PhoneGap 構建云服務的完全支持。該服務可以在線將開發者在云端的 HTML、JavaScript 和 CSS打包并發布可發布到 App Store、Android Market 以及其他平臺的 app。
