There are lots of security holes in JavaScript and the Web environment, and many of them happen to work on phones too now. This is a known problem - Douglas Crockford (creator/extractor of JSON) spoke about it at XML 2007, and there's some discussion of it in this interview too: <http://answers.oreilly.com/topic/1483-doug-crockford-discusses-javascript-html5-security-issues/> I'd watch all of it, but security comes up around 2:12 and 4:23 in an HTML5 context. -- Simon St.Laurent http://simonstl.com/
