[QUOTE][u]Quote by: mevans[/u][p]There are a couple of ways to better enable mobile devices.  I have a BlackBerry and before we came up with a good method to do a pure CSS based layout, I did as Joe suggested, wrote some custom code to detect the BB broswer and set a theme with no side blocks.  Works well, but you have to figure out all the different browser types for mobile devices.  For me it was easy, I surfed to the site and looked at the logs :)  But if you are trying to do this for several users, it might be a bit more difficult.  I did have to revisit my code when I switched to the Opera mini browser on my BB.

Now, I use either the Nouveau or Chameleon theme.  As Eric mentioned, they send the content first, then the blocks and it renders very nicely on my BlackBerry or my iPhone.  No additional work, just use the theme and you are done.

I'm not sure if you'll have users that need to login, but if you go with the no block method, don't forget to provide a login link somewhere that they can get to.

Thanks!
