title: How to get scripts to work with phones and tablets
body: <p>I'm writing scripts for a google docs spreadsheet that run when cells are edited using the onEdit function.</p>
  
  <p>So far it performs things beyond what spreadsheet functions can achieve such as:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Validates all data based on where they are entered</li>
  <li>Provides mechanism for protecting cells that are not supposed to be modified</li>
  <li>Logs date and time data is entered (the user part doesn't work properly though)</li>
  <li>Checks for duplicate entries and warns accordingly</li>
  <li>Applies number formats (beyond the limited choices available from the menus)</li>
  <li>Applies conditional formatting (No limits!)</li>
  <li>And much much more</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>However one problem I find is that when cells are edited from mobile browsers such as from an iPhone or andriod tablet, the scripts do not work?</p>
  
  <p>According to wikipedia:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Google Apps Script is a cloud based scripting language for light-weight application development in the Google Apps platform. It is based on JavaScript,[2] however instead of running on the client, it gets executed in the Google Cloud.</p>

  <p>Is there something I am doing wrong or is there another way to set up my triggers so that my scripts will be run even when someone enters data from a mobile browser?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
