I have no idea how this would be done, but most of my time on here is on my iPhone. The text is quite small and requires much squinting and navigating the site difficult. Any possibility of this. I am not a paid member "yet" so I hate to make suggestions or request but it may be very useful. ------------- "Noob" |

I wish there was a mobile version of the site as well. Images always load funny on my phone. I have the new Motorola Droid 2 Global and I have tried three of four different browsers. I also wish I didn't have to go back and forth turning the WYSIWYG feature on and off. It gets super annoying!!!! I applaud those that run this site though. I know NOTHING about this stuff or I would help out where I could.

The site runs great on my iPad. Get a bigger phone. 
Seriously though .... what other MBs do you frequent from your phone? Maybe our web gurus can have a look and see what can be done.
BTW - if you want to have some fun, try navigating the site on a BlackBerry. That is damn near impossible. I wish my work would upgrade to the iPhone or Droid!

BTW - don't hesitate to make suggestions just because you havent't had the time to buy a membership. The club will take all the great ideas we can get.
I'm almost sure you can access PayPal from the iPhone ...

I would love a true mobile version as well, however I understand that Jake does this all on a volunteer basis and that it may require significant changes to the code. ------------- None at the moment Soon: 72 Gallon Bowfront |

In my experience, the easiest way to make a site mobile friendly is to add mobile stylesheets. This is easier than creating a separate mobile view as the mobile and non-mobile versions share the majority of their code. -------------

The site runs fine on my iphone, even with the wyswyg editor on. I'm not sure why I don't have issues. I do keep my software up to date and just use the regular safari browser. ------------- Steve http://utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40637&PID=356246" rel="nofollow - My Old 180G Mixed Reef Currently: 120G Wavefront Mixed 29G Seahorse & Softies Running ReefAngel Plus x2 435-8 |
