mobile webpage?

[Guest]

I never heard of mobile webpage. Did anybody know?

Our client asked us if he can access their website's mobile website. My
understnading is the mobile browser can access any website just like normal
browser. The only difference is the images are turned off. Correct me if I am
wrong.

TIA

Sites aimed at mobile devices need to consider different factors in their
presentation layer, its not as simple as just turning off images. that said
most modern devices have a good appreciation of most html tags, and the .NET
framework controls can downgrade to different devices if you have the
correct toolsets or framework version automatically. that still doesn't
remove the design considerations however.

Theres a lot of reading to be done around this - start here:
