Lots of fun...frustrating fun.
Before the Holidays beseech us all, and shoppers make their way to the grocer for food stock to feed Aunt Harriet, or Uncle Bob; I decided to take an evening and work on a new mobile site for sddrawings.com. I never realized the ingenuity that goes into designing for your little pocket PCs until I tried to incorporate one into my site. There's a whole lot less real-estate to work with to start with.
Well, that's not entirely true. I have a pseudo page I made over at m.hikealabama.org, though it doesn't use any of the page calls like I'm trying to design into my own site. I might scrap everything and move to a wordpress site. They are fast and nimble, easily modifiable (well, as easy as any web designing can be I guess) though I understand there are issues on keeping the sites up to date for security purposes.
The biggest problem I am having is writing a cookie to work off the htaccess file to show mobile users right off the bat, a page to decide if they want the mobile site or the main page. It's frustrating, but a fun little hobby if nothing else.
Anyways, check it out and give me any feedback you may have.
Happy Trails!
