I must disagree with Nitin.
On my iPhone 4 the txt is wayyy too big and I can't zoom out.
But I rarely use mobile versions of websites, and I can't find the button to take me to the desktop site.
I do like the resized page buttons though :)

Looks OK in my Blackberry 9860 :) Some of the buttons are a bit funky but it's easy to use!

I may be 24, but knowing how to use my mobile for anything other than texting, phoning,emailing or web browsing and I'm stuck. I have solitaire on it though.

Basically the Preview, Submit, page number selector, post formatting buttons are quite large! The "image" buttons (like edit, quote, postreply etc) are fine.

I'll try and get a picture for you later :oops: It doesn't have a built in screencap as far as I know.

Really?

My iPhone 4 has issues with the picture sizes being cut off. Plus have you tried turning to landscape mode? It zooms in on the words even more and you can't manually zoom in and out with the touchscreen??? Kawa? Not sure what method you've made it Mobile compatible, so not sure what to suggest. Most forums have a pop up on smartphones asking whether you want to use the mobile devised site or 'cancel'. Cancel takes you to the full desktop site instead. Is that an option on phpBB?

Cheers,

Rob

The native desktop view is now default.
There is an option in the user control panel to switch to mobile view.
Mobile view is only receommended for the best mobile devices in the world.
(aka android / google webkit enabled mobile browsers).
