Answer 1

Hello Kenny,

Yes you can integrate our push notification service in your HTMl5 application for mobile if you are building through Phone Gap framework. Please have a look at this link, it will help you in the integration part of push notification using App42 JavaScript SDK for the same.

Let us know if it helps.

 

Thanks,

They only support push notifications via the mobile device facility.  Push notifications for the web would require some kind of comet support or sockets, which I haven't seen any evidence of so far.

If you are looking for Push Notification in web based browser application, you can use our AppWarp (http://appwarp.shephertz.com) multi player engine which runs on websocket and can be used to push messages on browser based apps.
