Anything interesting about it?

(Apart from the fact that it allows decimal numbers like 127.0.0.1 and uses annyoing alert() boxes for error handling.)


Yeah, alert boxes aren't great I admit. I was aiming for the bare minimum of functionality but I could perhaps add nicer popups using script. It detects changes in browser window size and tries to redraw the button pad accordingly; and so should work well on mobile screens too though there are some width issues on iPod Touch.


Similar named http://www.calc5.com/ calculator. But could do much more


You think it could be as least as powerful as the standard Windows 7 calculator - which is actually pretty nice.


On the iPhone 4 iOs 4.1 it raises the keyboArd each time you press a button


cool. 1+1=3
