Answer 1

This is a fast a simple way to do it, it is better if you extended to make more real life usage:

1- download phonegap

2- Build your first app using this tutorial or using the phonegap how to get stared

3- once you have that let's go server side.. we need a API, the simplest way to do this is like this:

gethome();
        echo($jsonReturn);
    }
?>

4- create that controller to control the request from the API, for example something like this:

    0){
                while($us = mysql_fetch_assoc($yourqueryResult)){
                    $output[]=$us;
                    $homeJsonResponse = json_encode($output);
                }

                return $homeJsonResponse;
        }
    }
    ?>

5- We are back to the phonegap application, now make sure you are including all needed files, jquery, jquerymobile, cordovajs, itouch, iscroll....

6- create the function that will execute on load and make the ajax call to the api, this will return json, just parse with jquery, and you are good to go.
