| @TMTisFree Good, it hasn't been tested in Symbian OS yet
Anyone know what browser Symbian OS uses?
I've tested the site on Palm OS using Palm OS Simulator with Web Browser 2.0 at 320x480, and on PocketPC with Pocket IE using my XDA IIi at 240x320 Last edited by DaveyD on 15-Nov-2005 at 10:20 PM.

| Nokia 6680 has Symbian and I tried the page with the built in browser and with Opera and it seems like it works without any problems with both browsers. |

| Best I could do so quickly...
This is on my Sony Ericsson P910i using Opera, which comes free with the phone (but has to be installed by the user)...

| Very nice work, BTW, Davey. The pda version doesn't look any better than the normal site under Opera, but the layout ends up being a bit more sensible and it loads much faster.
Apologies for spamming the thread with three posts, but inline images seem to play havoc with the positioning of text.
And I need to boost my post count to get a more important sounding description... |

| (...searches through 'phone manual...)
The P910 screen is 208x320. This is fixed. I wouldn't worry too much about text or graphic sizes as the browsers are quite good at automatically scaling things down.
Both browsers also have a scrolling mode where the site will render at its normal (or an assumed default) resolution, but this mode is such a pain in the ar*e that nobody in their right mind ever uses it unless they have to.
The UIQ browser produces pages very similar to your screenshots. Opera uses more sophisticated dynamic reformatting for the small screen so it looks a bit different (very similar to the way it renders the "normal" page). Either way, it's readable and useable.
Excellent work.
**Edit: Replaced incorrect "it's" with its. This is the sort of mistake that used to drive me mental when I was an A-Level tutor. I hang my head in shame...** Last edited by MasterOfReality on 16-Nov-2005 at 12:12 AM.
