 I believe content is king and should precede navigation in the html.

... unless you're using a screen reader, then you'll need to go to the bottom 
of the page to access the navigation.  This is why they have skip links.  

As for the long words not wrapping, why not use: word-wrap: break-word;

Not all of them are necessary but primarily because font-scaling in
mobile hand-sets causes long words to break the outermost containing
block [producing horizontal page wiggle ]. In plain English one has to
scroll both horizontally and vertically to read the text.  And using
-moz-hyphens:auto;-ms-hyphens:auto;-o;webkit-hyphens:auto;hyphens:auto;
is not even close to being ready for prime-time.

That is a horrible solution in general for 'western' text as it breaks words at 
any arbitrary point, without respect for grammar and word-breaking rules; it 
might work in very controlled environments, eventually. Or for 'western' text 
strings embedded inside CJK text.

I wouldn't say its horrible, but you are correct in where the breaks happen, if 
they happen. It's usually not an issue if your container is sized to fit the 
text.

And what is Western text embedded inside CJK text?

 It is a bug in Safari 6.0x and the equivalent Mobile Safari on iOS 6.x (and 
 maybe older versions of Safari, haven't tested). That is fixed in 
 Safari.next.
 
 I think toggling between 'block' and 'inline-block' on the li instead of 
 the b and a kids will work better. Keep the latter two as 'block' the 
 whole time.

No skip links
Heading tags are not in order.  You start with an H2, go to an H1, then to an 
H5 and an H6.
Alt tags for images are empty.
Do the images have meaning, or are they used for filler?  Same image in 
multiple locations on the same page.
Hovering over a link shows a line above the link text, which can be confusing.

Looks ok on a Nokia Lumia 928 w/WP8 using IE10 and UC Browser.

Karl, overlap not seen [behaves as intended] when rotating from

http://iphone5simulator.com/ .

However, what one gets on a simulator dose not always match what one
sees on an actual device.

Anyone else see the problem Karl wrote about on iPhone 5 and/or have
a fix for same? Note that the nav is the last item in the html source
and is absolute positioned in the css to the top of the page;
consequently, there may in fact be some overlap in some small screen

Karl, overlap not seen [behaves as intended] when rotating from
portrait to landscape in this particular iPhone 5 simulator
http://iphone5simulator.com/ .

However, what one gets on a simulator dose not always match what one
sees on an actual device.

Anyone else see the problem Karl wrote about on iPhone 5 and/or have
a fix for same? Note that the nav is the last item in the html source
and is absolute positioned in the css to the top of the page;
consequently, there may in fact be some overlap in some small screen
devices.

Best,
David Laakso

 Thanks for the screen shots. I have modified the CSS. Please open in
 iPhone 5 portrait mode. Rotate to landscape. Reload the device or tap
 any of the three bunched up links. Does iPhone 5 landscape recover,
 now?
 
 Thanks Karl.

Also, if I might suggest on the nav links, placing at least one more space or 
padding on each side of the text inside the buttons with the shaded 
backgrounds. The text looks a little crammed in there. But not entirely 
necessary. Just my opinion. :)

 Curious on why you placed the Navigation at the bottom of the page?

I believe content is king and should precede navigation in the html.

 Also, why are you using all of the soft hyphens ...  #x00ad; ?

Not all of them are necessary but primarily because font-scaling in
mobile hand-sets causes long words to break the outermost containing
block [producing horizontal page wiggle ]. In plain English one has to
scroll both horizontally and vertically to read the text.  And using
-moz-hyphens:auto;-ms-hyphens:auto;-o;webkit-hyphens:auto;hyphens:auto;
is not even close to being ready for prime-time.

It is a bug in Safari 6.0x and the equivalent Mobile Safari on iOS 6.x (and 
maybe older versions of Safari, haven't tested). That is fixed in Safari.next.

I think toggling between 'block' and 'inline-block' on the li instead of the

Of course. Chrome on iOS uses the exact same rendering engine as Safari. 
Chrome-up-to-date on desktop should have that bug fixed by the same patch as 
what fixed Safari nightly build.

Chrome on my desktop doesn't cover the header, but the two green buttons get 
broken into two lines and the third button gets a hyphen put into it. Same with 
camino, just no hyphen. Same with Sunshine, just no hyphen. Same with firefox, 
just no hyphen, but it also covers the header.
