I live by my Mogul.. So I decided to make a mobile version of snitz..
Basically what this does is if someone with a smartphone/blackberry/portable device hits your forum it will redirect it to the appropriate page...
Snippet follows:
Dim user_agent, mobile_browser, Regex, match, mobile_agents, mobile_ua, i, size
user_agent = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT")
mobile_browser = 0
Set Regex = New RegExp
With Regex
.Pattern = "(up.browser|up.link|mmp|symbian|smartphone|midp|wap|phone|windows ce|pda|mobile|mini|palm)"
.IgnoreCase = True
.Global = True
End With
Make a change in the inc_header file and it successfully redirects mobiles to the page. Currently, in my sandbox I have it coded to show the last 25 topics added (this can easily be changed to show the whole forum).
The directory structure is forumroot\mobile (so we can reuse code from the original snitz I.E. config.asp)
I have successfully tested this with a Mogul and Blackberry.
It's a very rough draft and still working out the kinks but if there is interest I'll clean up the code and package it up.< |

sounds good, there has been some interest in the past, and someone did actually make some lite versions of the pages, but I'm not sure if it ever got finished.
Yo may want to take a look at the .net beta as this was something that I have in mind for a future .net version
Snitz .Net Beta< |

| no, .net is just a .net version of Snitz, although there is little development of the ASP version other than bug fixes and minor updates since it already does what it is supposed to do and does it pretty well< |

But where's the fun in that? 
Seriously though, if you know of a good mobile RSS Aggregator that runs on Windows Mobile 6, I'd love to know for my own use.< |

| I found quite a few, but I think most of them rely on you to synchronise with your desktop< |

Hi
I am making our intranet Blackberry compatible (big sigh) and I am slightly confused by this post which is extremely relevant.
I use a version of the mobile sniff code in other templates of our cms to call subs in layout templates but I must be missing the point with your suggestion. No problem with the code but where are you pointing to? Is there a mobile version of Snitz to send users to?
Thanks
