The iPhone Web App uses the excellent iWebKit. I am going to answer the following question before it is asked: 'Why isn't the RE iPhone Control a real iPhone App?'. The answer to that is simply cost and flexibility. I do not own a Intel Mac computer to install the SDK onto, and I do not have $100 to spend on joining the developer program. Whatsmore, I don't have the time to learn the SDK and Objective-C. It would be nice, but I don't really see the advantage of making a native app. One other reason is flexibility. With the Web App, any user can modify it to suit his/her needs in practically any way. With a native app, you are stuck with what I deliver you.
RequirementsThe Web App runs on any web server supporting PHP, though it has only been tested with Abyss and Apache on Windows.Class/Component Breakdowns rcComms (classes/rcComms.php) - In here you can change the server IP and port number. This class contains all the methods required by the Web App to communicate with REServ over TCP/IP rcPage (classes/rcPage.php) - Generic page construction methods rcData (classes/rcData.php) - Temp data stash methods. Currently uses PHP sessions, though it could be modified to work with HTML5 local SQL database. InstallationThe WebApp comes pre-installed and configured with Abyss Web Server X1. All you need to do is simply run the iPhone WebApp Server & REServer from the Start Menu program group, and do the following:Ensure that the iPhone Web App Server is running (you should see this in the system tray): 
Go to Start, Run, type in cmd and press OK. Then in the command window, type ipconfig and hit enter.
