Hello David and Ryan - Thanks very much for the information - very helpful.
If anyone else would like to weigh-in on standards issues (and/or mobile standard tutorials, gotcha's, etc.) surrounding site development for mobile devices, please do... Should be a great help to many of us.

You can get a downloadable Opera Mobile emulator at http://www.opera.com/developer/tools/ . It isn't strictly an emulator.

It comes as part of the SDK package for iPhone at least. An emulator also comes as part of the Palm (It is a copy of the OS that you have to run through a virtual machine like VirtualBox) SDK, and the Android SDK. > > Would greatly appreciate any advice from those of this group who > develop mobile viewable pages (particulary forms) on where to test > your efforts for the best compliant and visual result across the > largest number of mobile devices possible. > > Cole > > > > ******************************************************************* > List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm > Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm > Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org > ******************************************************************* > -- David Storey Chief Web Opener / Product Manager, Opera Dragonfly W3C WG: Mobile Web Best Practices / SVG Interest Group Opera Software ASA, Oslo, Norway Mobile: +47 94 22 02 32 / E-Mail/XMPP: dsto...@opera.com / Twitter: dstorey ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ******************************************************************* ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
