Kindle html puzzle
I've been idly looking into producing a simple puzzle game for the kindle. It can be done via html + JS + CSS. Do simplified web based forms and JS work roughly the same on the kindle browser? Can I develop on for a normal browser and then just use that code on the Kindle? Can I produce the relevant files and "compile" them into a mobi file for release? Are there utilities that allow me to see what screens would be like on a kindle?
The aim is to have everything working via a single form and not go to any server. Is it also possible to save a few functional cookies permanently on the kindle browser? Are there any guides for producing web pages that are easy for a kindle to render? Any gotchas? Thanks for reading. Mike |

Weirdly enough, Sudoku was exactly what I was aiming to do
Does the fact that you need to install the files rather than just download a mobi mean that you can't load html files through a mobi container. I thought this was possible which was why I started thinking about doing the project. |
