Hello All,

Wishing all is well at this time for everyone!

I have an interesting question at least I think it is. "Does anyone know if there are or will be any programs which can work with mobile phones such as (BlackBerry) from Coffee Cup Software?" I have used many of these programs for quite some time now and being I am on my phone checking my email the question came to my mind. Please get back to me if anyone has the answer!

Thanks all have a great day :-)

Would that be software to install onto a Blackberry to create content, or software installed on a PC to create web content viewable by a Blackberry's browser? :)

I'm not sure what the original posters request was, however, I was curious about software that Coffee Cup might have in order to create Web sites for mobile devices.

This is where everything is heading and it would seem that having a "mobile" version of sites we create would be beneficial.

I was considering playing with an alternate version of my site that was optimized to work on a mobile device. Streamed down in size. Smaller & Less graphics, etc.

Any thoughts?

Rivera,

You can use CSS to direct which parts of your web site are visible to mobile/handhelds. I have not done this, and I have just started reading about it. It seems similar to setting what parts of your web site print when someone prints from the browser. These are just different media types, so you can just maintain a single site, and direct different media to use selected parts. Check out this page for more information:
