'''GeoGebraWeb'''
 
 
 
*GeoGebraWeb is the HTML5 version of GeoGebra for iPads / Chromebooks / Android Tablets
 
We have released a new version:
 
 
 
* Input Boxes now working
 
* FormulaText now works for conditional functions eg FormulaText[If[x = 3, x + 1, If[x < 5, x + 2, x + 3]]]
 
* Almost all commands now working
 
* Lots of other small improvements
 
* All relevant JavaScript methods are working: [http://wiki.geogebra.org/en/Reference:JavaScript Java Script]
 
* Most applet parameters now supported: [http://wiki.geogebra.org/en/Reference:Applet_Parameters Applet Parameters]
 
* New applet parameter to adjust for touch screens: data-param-capturingThreshold
 
* Just one Graphics View supported at the moment (no Spreadsheet, Algebra View)
 
 
 
Notes:
 
*Dashed lines depend on the browser supporting that. Currently only Firefox does.
 
*If you upload worksheets to [http://www.geogebra.org GeoGebra] then they will automatically use Java or HTML5 as appropriate
