just curious with the rise in mobile browsers, how hard would it be to make vB WAP Browsable?

i saw someone talking about sms pm's which would be really great but i was thinking about the whole forums being browsable on your mobile. would this be hard? or is it a unrealistic feat for vB? could vB have suprised us and it be available for vB3 as standard?

Theoretically it's as simple as making a new style set. However that would basically mean redoing virtually every single template so good luck with that.

Or installing one of the Archive Hacks, and modifying it very slightly to make users able to post.

yes, a combination of the archive hacks with the quickreply feature would be perfect i think

shouldn't be to hard

This is something that has been requested by some of my users and I will be implementing when talkloud goes to vb3.

I actually think its pretty stupid, but its a challenge.

It's been done by someone using Overgrow's hack for PDAs...

but PDAs can browse all websites!

Erwin · #9 03-04-2003, 09:39 PM

No, something that is optimized for PDAs - minimal graphics etc.

yeah that's true, with wap it needs to be in .wml format

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
