Well, this is where I am so far...

Our AvantGo channel used to allow people to read, but not post. (This was so that page impressions on our main service weren't affected). Obviously, a web-clipping application would allow you to post too, but AvantGo being offline, we didn't feel the user needed to post (and we had no complaints, certainly).

We hacked the "View new posts" equivalent to be in a simple style, and the displayed posts to also be in a simple style.

In the case of VB, editing the styles is easy - so that our normal style and http://forums.mediauk.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1680&style=2]a proposed AvantGo style[/url] is pretty simple to organise.

But, seemingly I can't do "search.php?s=&action=getnew&style=2" - i.e. force the "get new messages" search in the AvantGo style.

Am I missing something obvious?

My site also is set up with an AvantGo account. Keep in mind that you're limited as to how much space your account can have and a user can only go so far in depth into your site. Also bear in mind that tables and images are very hard to decipher when viewed through a PDA and are often misconstrued. I would be very skeptical that viewing Forums would be easy to do through a PDA.

I did it, and it looked beautiful - if you restrict it to "latest messages", so give only a subset of messages, it works beautifully.

Promise.

We'll get it working with VB too...

Guys,

My Palm Pilot can't handle surfing, but it's great for offline content. I'll suck up a web document, then read it later offline.

I released this hack to simply convert a thread to downloadable PalmDoc format, similar to the "Printer Friendly Version".

I'm not sure if this will help, but good luck!

Anyone get this done? I run a couple of Palm user group web sites and this would be a MUST have for them.

Success!!

I've made a very cut-down version of my forums specifically for AvantGo use - by mucking about with vbSpiderFriend, a hack originally meant to create a text-only spider friendly version of your forum for Google.

http://forums-lite.mediauk.com/ to have a peek (of course, it looks appalling on a PC!!)

One caveat: it's READ ONLY.

Any good to anyone?

It looks crude, yet good

Oh yes!
I frequently use GPRS to check the latest post on my laptop.
I have been on the lookout for something that let's me do this without graphics at all, but I have been to lazy to code it myself.

Any support for logging in too?
