Posted from my SmartPhone!

unfortunately modaco is not a model of smartphone-friendly forum...

reading forum posts and navigating the site requires a lot of horizontal scrolling, making it very hard to use from a smartphone.

hopefuly you guys will improve that...

Are you using smartphone.modaco.com as this is the smartphone friendly version of this site, the only scrolling then is vertical.

Yes, I used a link from a notification email that I received, like:

http://smartphone.modaco.com/viewtopic.php...p=351315#351315

Apparently it does recognize Smartphone clients dynamically, somehow, since it gives me the page with the number keys of the Smartphone mapped on some links.

But in this case, why doesn't it give me the right vertical format ?

if smartphone.modaco.com is the smartphone friendly subdomain, what is the mobile.modaco.com subdomain for?

Works ok for me. Fast too, even via dial up from my spv, and gprs is like broadband!

For some reason it did not work well for me (using a i600).

And PIE was set to "Fit to Screen".

I had the numbers in front of the links (so I'm pretty sure that was the Smartphone version, because I don't see those numbers in the regular version), but there was a lot of horizontal scrolling.

sorry, my previous post didnt make any sense, i meant to ask what mobile .modaco.com was aimed at.

edit, ok, now i get it, the site automatically changed the url from mobile to smartphone for some reason

is it possible to get to the smartphone version without a smartphone? ie when i am surfing from my pocketp? it would be useful to not have all the graphics.

idavid,

If you use http://mobile .modaco.com/ then you will get the smartphone version in any browser including desktop ie (good for browsing at work :D )

HTH

[edit]

Had to add a space to the link cos it replaces the mobile .modaco.com link with smartphone.modaco.com! This forum's too clever for it's own good :)

I was trying to write a post from my SPV for the first time today and I noticed that if I tick the "remember password" tick box, Modaco tells me that I have entered an incorrect password. Also, once I'd finally signed on, I went to do a "quick reply" and when I submitted it, I was taken back to the enter password screen and forced to log in again and consequently had to retype my post all over again (this happened twice). Pretty annoying.
