Mobile Upgrade including iPhone

[JustJon]

I've done some backend updates to the mobile stuff. Those of you on blackberries, windows mobile, etc. should notice no difference.

Those of you on iphones get a new iPhone friendly skin on the site. Please note the iPhone skin isn't done. For instance, it's still green, but I just don't have time to do it tonight. But happy mobile browsing.

Can someone forward this info to Gvac.

it's great to see an admin that cares about this place.

It is so easy and functional. Really nice.:thumbup:

But it lacks the ability to tag.

Well, the "upgrade" does not seem to be working at all on my iPhone. Every time I try to post something, I just get a message that says "Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched." This is with Safari on the iPhone. There's a link on that screen to notify an administrator, but when I tried that, the same thing happened. So much for that.

What I did see of it, I find less usable, in a lot of ways, than the old skin. I can't really read anything in portrait mode without moving things around a lot. It fits the screen well in landscape, but then I get into the problem of not being able to see the text box to type the reply under the keyboard.

Plus, I don't get a text box to post anything unless I reply to an existing post. I cannot just post on my own.

But didn't you see the picture of Harrison Ford on his phone?! It's so sweet!

I feel like a foster kid that was finally placed in a loving home.

I'll spend more time evaluating it tonight.

Amazing.

Amazing.

You're the anti-Gvac.

[JimmieHats]

You're the anti-Gvac.

I hear that's a good thing...

Haven't we all seen it? He shows it off like it is a Congressional medal of Honor.

[scottinnj]

is there a specific URL you can type into your phone's browser for the mobile skin? I ditched my PDA for a Voyager, and it loads up the whole page, which really tasks my phone.

[JustJon]

Just coming to ronfez.net should automagically activate the mobile skin. I don't have a voyager to test on to make sure it's coming up as a mobile.

[scottinnj]

Thanks dude.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Quite.
