how to format for mobile devices

Aug 6, 2012 9:16 AM

Hi everyone:

I have just managed to upload my one and probably only website.  I built it in DW CS5.5.  I have worked to learn the basics of HTML and CSS but still have a huge learning curve.  I watched videos and have read everything in adobe help to figure out how to format for mobile devices and tablets but I'm missing a step somewhere.

 

Can someone please take a look and advise me?  Do I need to do a complete rebuild or can I use the same CSS/HTML that I have currently?  Please direct me to the steps to attach, rebuild, or whatever

 

Thanks in advance:  collegesportsnotebook.com

    What are you looking to do exactly?

     

    The site renders fine on my iPhone, it looks just like the desktop version (which I far prefer to being forced to an iPhone only site).

    WOW...you are right.  I had only checked the multiscreen preview in DW but had not pulled it up on my tablet or iphone since uploading last night.  I was thinking I needed to use a different JQuery mobile format for more readability, but after seeing it and being able to read and navigate ok in these devices, I think I'll leave it as is.

     

    Thanks and I welcome any suggestions for improvement!!!!  Connie  (it will be a mom & pop operation at this point)

    You do have a couple errors in your HTML and CSS, nothing huge, but you might want to check them out...

    Errors can make browsers do weird things to your page display.

    got it, thanks, and I'll work on it.   I'm aware of a couple of other link issues and images not displaying properly but I'll be fixing those soon...again, thanks for your response
