Web site update – now “mobilized”

Blogged by: Jon Ferraiolo on February 27, 2008 at 1:40 pm

The OpenAjax Alliance site () has received a minor facelift. The menu has been moved from the left side to the top, with dropdown menus. By doing this, the web site now provides more visibility into our current activities and more convenience for navigating around our site. Also, the front page now highlights recent news.

One of the side effects from the Web site update is that there is now a mobile version for our Web site. The back-end logic generates one template for desktop browsers (i.e., IE, Firefox and Safari other than the iPhone) and a different template for all other browsers, which are assumed to be mobile devices. The result is an experience that is faster and friendlier for mobile devices. Opera on all devices is supported via the mobile template, mainly because of my discovery midway through development that the toolbar widget that I was using did not work on Opera.
