It does on the iphone's but I don't think it does on Nokia's.

I was trying to do this for a mate on friday in the pub and couldn't work it out. He bit the bullet and ordered up an iphone

It's because your using the mobile version, that is designed for mobiles otherwise you would be racking up data charges not to mention the time pages would take to load with images etc. (If you look at the link it will be m.passionford.com)

It may be the phone knows about the mobile version and therefore uses this opposed to the full version, on the Iphone it asks you when you visit the site if you want to view the mobile theme or not and as said a link at the bottom to revert.

i've had a few issues with the mobile version so i use the main version

if you post this thread up in the problems and policies room you'll get much better replies from the peole who actually work on the site doing stuff

sort of agree, but i think older phones will benifit as their slower downloads and screens etc won't have sigs and everything taking up space and bandwidth and useage

Images work using the m.passionford URL for me and what I prefer to use when on my iPhone as it loads way quicker. I don't use Safari as my browser I use Atomic Web Browser.

I have a user hide agent on my Nokia N900 which allows me to send the browser identity as Internet Explorer or similar and I can view the entire web on it as I do on my PC>

I'm not sure if something is available for Symbian powered phones though.

Got a Nokia x6 and downloaded a new browser called Skyfire. Can view sites in full with it. Think I got it from the Ovi store,

yeah i had that problem with my N86, its because pf have not sorted the software out for symbian phones, so its stuck in mobile view, where as other phones like the iphone can view it like a pc can.

But downloading skyfire like Rob said above might be a way around that for you nokia users?

Its abit annoying on the iphone when every now and again it asks "click ok to view mobile mode" i only need to be asked once
