QuestionDesigning a website for mobile devices Pin
Gregory Gadow18-May-11 6:31

I am working to set up a version of my website for mobile users. The current site has only a few pages which will rarely change, so I am thinking to create a parallel site with XHTML that is very light weight (few images, no scripting and designed to need minimal CSS.) I have a few questions, though.

I design on a dev machine, so I cannot just use my phone to view the site as I work. Any suggestions for device emulators that can be run on a Windows 7 PC for testing various screen sizes and interfaces?

I know that mobile devices come in a very wide arrange of sizes. Any suggestions on the range of screen sizes I should test to accomodate the largest number of common phones?

I have found arguments for using automatic selection of site via the user agent string, or for allowing the user to manually select which version of the site, or allowing both (making the first selection based on the user agent, then having links that let the user switch to the other version.) Would anyone like to comment on which method is considered best?

Are there any other thoughts people could share about designing mobile websites? Pitfalls, tricks, must-haves?

Thanks for the feedback.
