Hello,

I can test it with IE for Windows Mobile 5 on my smartphone. I also run Opera on it, so I can test it in real life.

But there seems to be many different situations (key or stylus use), css or not, width, height of screens, default fonts, speed for slow networks, I think we would need many users.

I also tried to write a css stylesheet for small-width screens, inspired from Monobook. It is pleasant on my mobile phone, but it is still the very beginning.

My stub is here : http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:Plyd/myskin.css I'll take screenshots soon.

Where could we see Simetrical's one?

Simetrical's been doing some work on the handheld stylesheet lately, which brings me to the subject of testing MediaWiki in actual mobile/handheld browsers.

I stuck a few notes up the other day on the subject of testing with emulators:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_browser_testing

To summarize real quick:

• Opera Mini can be tested in any desktop web browser via a Java applet

that Opera provides

• IE Mobile / Pocket IE can in theory be tested in an emulator that

Microsoft provides (for Windows PCs), but I haven't gotten networking to work so haven't been able to reach a wiki with it

If someone can get the Windows Mobile/PocketPC/Windows CE/whatever thing working, or knows of good resources for testing other mobile OSs/browsers, that would be welcome news!

Volunteers for testing on actual devices and donations of devices are also welcome.
