Question

Can an iphone app developed using html5, CSS and Javascript be sold through Apple store ?

Answer 1

You can develop almost all of an app using HTML5/CSS/Javascript. 99.9% etc.

However at least a tiny portion (from a short template or a library) needs to be in Objective C to initialize a UIWebView containing the HTML web app source files, and the app bundle will need to be built using Xcode for submission to the App store.

Apple may or may not require some additional functionality beyond that of a simple web app before accepting an app into the App store. (There have been anecdotal reports both ways.)
