I am trying to give my iBook a more app like feel. To do this I need the HTML5 widget I have created to automatically activate once a page is opened so the user doesn't need to click on it.
Is this something that is possible in iBooks and iBooks Author?
Thanks.
This isn't possible in iBooks and iBooks Author. You have to interact with the HTML widget before it activates, unfortunately. It's how iBooks is designed.
