Public transport timetables are used relatively often on the iPhone, but the current IDOS solution is not at all ideal for iPhone-type mobile phones. That's why I've previously created a web application for finding public transport timetables formatted for the iPhone. And today I present to you a slightly improved version of public transport timetables.

The timetables have appeared on the iPhone as well as an app in the Appstore, but for now they are only bus and train timetables. In addition, the functionality is still limited, so it is advisable to look for other solutions. And I've been running my own version for public transport for several months now

And what are these public transport timetables at 14205.w5.wedos.net why? It is a specially formatted web application for the iPhone screen size where you can enter the city, boarding and exiting stop, date and time. The search results are no longer formatted for iPhone in any way, it is only a blind version of IDOS.cz.

Someone will surely ask what the difference is between these timetables and IDOS.cz formatted for mobile phones. First, there is no need to zoom in on the search screen - everything is already properly formatted. And most importantly, you will not only see one nearest connection in the search results, but several connections will be displayed. Plus, the initial search code is optimized to load as quickly as possible!

Timetables can be used again for a faster search add to iPhone screen among other apps from the Appstore. If you are already using public transport timetables from 14205.w5.wedos.net, you are probably wondering what is new. First of all, public transport timetables have a brand new icon created by the user Fractal. I hope you like the new green icon, I am very happy with it!

The second novelty concerns the script code. The search screen is now much better formatted for iPhone screens. Second, you can put a special version on your iPhone's desktop when you want to will automatically set your city for public transport searches, so you don't have to click through unnecessarily. And thirdly, you can also pre-define yours the most frequently used stops! If you want, you can have an icon on the iPhone screen with a link and specific stops. Many thanks to Alijen for editing the code!

Creating a public transport timetable icon on the iPhone screen in 3 steps:
1. Open the address in the iPhone browser http://jablickar.cz/mhd.php

2. Click the button in the bar and choose "Add to desktop"

3. Name the application something, personally I erase the end and leave only "Timetables" and click add.

Special timetable parameters
If you don't want to have Prague set by default, but you want another city or if you want to set a stop by default, then this advanced section is exactly for you. But it's nothing complicated and anyone can do it!

In the address line, it is necessary to fill in a few more parameters, especially in the city codes, do not look for any special logic, but simply use the code from the table below.

Address with parameters: http://jablickar.cz/mhd.php?mesto=e&odkud=Zastavka&kam=Konecna

The address thus consists of the address of the timetables, followed by a question mark, the city parameter and the definition of from and to. Write "&" between individual parameters, and if you need to write a space, you must write "%20". You can leave out any of the parameters. A special code is entered for the city, which you can find in the following table.

You can add a new one using the "&ch=" parameter predefined stops. You write stops after the equal sign and separate them with a comma. Always write stops in pairs, where the first is the starting station and the second is the final station. If you need a space, write %20 instead. The address can look like this, for example:

http://jablickar.cz/mhd.php?mesto=e&ch=prvni1%20vychozi,prvni2,druha1,druha2

We hope that our public transport timetables will come in handy. And if you like them, we will definitely be happy if you spread them to other mobile users!
