I've never had good luck trying to make the same html of a web app work on a mobile phone or normal browser.
Everything is so constrained / different that I've always ended up creating a separate set of templates that are specifically targeted for mobile devices. You could probably detect the use of a mobile browser and have a different set of html templates used as a result. (I know Tapestry allows for this ability, just haven't had to do it in Tapestry yet) Your users will appreciate this customized experienced anyways. If this mobile browsing capability is more than a "nice to have" addition to your product (ie a core service that people are likely to use on a daily basis ) you may want to investigate how much sense creating a j2me / native app would make. (none if it's not a regular enough thing that would make people ok with downloading an app) Tapestry is great for a lot of things, but personally speaking if it were a critical part of my product offering that people use for more than casual browsing I wouldn't make it a web app at all...(perhaps re-use the same services / etc , but the "experience" is always going to be 10x better when coming in native form on those kinds of platforms...)

Thanks ... I will try that out .. unfortunately even if it works for me I cannot compell my customers to download and us it. I don't want to try and tell the customers how to do so either, as I am trying to sell my prodct not opera's. -Pat On 2/10/07, Thiago H de Paula Figueiredo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Sat, 10 Feb 2007 04:10:35 -0200, Patrick Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > Hi there -- > > > > I am trying to access my tapestry 4.1.2 application via a fairly > high-end > > phone browser.
