The only ones that go well on iphones and ipad are the ones under the menu specific for ipads and ipods, the virtual tours made in flash will not run on your iphone.
Can you tell me which one gives you the javascript error?

Thanks

Hi Joon
I have recorded a demo of a 360 fotos that you can see in a iPad which is not jailbreaked and with the krpano adaptation for iPad it runs like silk.

http://www.youtube.com/user/edosmultimedia#p/a/u/2/_dX8eDwMRK8

When you enter our web with a PC or Mac the script uses the flash version, but if a mobile safari is detected it runs the ipad version.

if you read more in krpano web you can see this:”The viewer is Javascript based and uses the CSS 3D transforms for displaying the panoramas. These CSS 3D transforms are currently only available as Webkit extensions in the Mobile Safari and in the Mac Safari Browsers.

The possibilities compared to Flash are limited. It’s only possible to use cubical pano images.
A triangle based 3D rendering, which would allow things like Fisheye / ‘Little Planet’ projections, spherical / cylindrical and partial panos is not possible with the CSS 3D transforms. Maybe there will be more possibilities in future when some real 3D graphics APIs (like WebGL) become available. But the current quality and performance is already really good and viewing panos makes fun, especially on the iPad

The viewer reads and parses the same XML file as the krpano Flash viewer. So it’s possible to control and setup both viewers by the same file.”

Sorry for my english I’m from Spain
Thank you!

Well, Alex:

as I don’t have an iPad to view your site on I can’t be a 100% sure, but on my computer your iPad demo panorama using krpano is actually based on the Flash plug-in. On the krpano website it says:

“krpano – is a small, versatile and high-performance viewer for interactive 3D panoramas on the web. It is based on the cross platform Adobe Flash Player, the world’s most popular software platform for interactive software.”

Does it work on the iPad?

Hello I don’t agree with you, you can do virtual tours in the Ipad, in fact we do! The lack of Flash is not a problem thanks to krpano.
If you want to see a 360º panorama in the ipad please visit my web for examples, we are converting our panoramas to the new system.
