Going Mobile With NetCommunity (White paper and sample code!)
A guest appearance on Labs from Michael Andrews, Distinguished Engineer at Blackbaud. Mike has posted a great white paper covering mobile device support in NetCommunity. In addition, he has posted the full source to a custom part you can use today to starting "going mobile" as Pete Townshend would say...
Shaun, We have been trying to do this for a little while. The part that Michael wrote redirect you to a different PID if the page is hit with a mobile device but where we were having our problem was when we tried to design a page to display on a mobile device.
Even with a clean layout, template, page and css it seems that there is a always a </%@> at the top of every page on a mobile device
this series of characters does exist when you view the source in a normal browser but for some reason it's not displayed.
I'm just wondering if you all ran into this and if you had a work around?
Thanks Garrett. Yes that random </%@> has been fixed in the upcoming 5.5 release. Desktop browsers ignore it, but some phones don't. But it's gone forever.
