This is an issue in iOS 5. I will fix it in the next update.

This is fixed for Textastic 3.1.
I could fix this bug for Textastic 3.1.

There were a few issues at work here. The UI is now updated when you download a lot of files and I could fix a memory issue when directories are created.
This is fixed for Textastic 3.1.

In the meantime, you can use this workaround:

Add the following line to your Apache config (httpd.conf):

BrowserMatch "^Textastic" redirect-carefully
I've implemented a textastic:// URL scheme for Textastic 3.1.
Rsync is licensed under the GPL, so I can't use it in an iOS app.

I think the creator of this topic meant a different feature: every app can register url schemes. For example, Textastic could register a textastic:// url scheme. This would allow you to use Safari to open files/urls with Textastic.

Texastic uses UIWebView which is basically an instance of Safari. So yes, HTML 5 is supported.
