Mobile Template

[patrick_auction123]

I'm working on creating a mobile template for one of my sites using the built in BC feature instead of media querires, I wanted to know iss there a way to view that template as opposite to the normal template using a regular browser so I can see what I am working on without having to switch to my phone every 5 minutes? Sorry if this is the wrong section, seemed like my best bet.

Thank you,

Patrick

I want to do it via the PC and this is an app for phones. The thing is I am working with BC and it allows for different templates for decivies but does not allow me to preview them with content on the pc.

anyone have any other input?

Also without such a URL how am i suppose to create a 'View Full Site' link at the bottom of mobile templates?

No one has any idea how to manually tell the browser which template to view?

I'm also working on a mobile version of a site with BC.  When you use their templates, the system automatically chooses which template to use based on their device detection.  I don't think "View Full Site" is an option.  It is either desktop, tablet or phone.

As of right now, I'm just using my phone to test the site.

Hi patrick_auction123,

I've used Mobilizer to test a site's mobile version via my computer - http://www.springbox.com/mobilizer/. Works pretty well.

thank you Carol, you have had the only successful answer here, I'm not sure why people kept suggesting shadow for desktop testing but thank you very much.
