How to seperate PC SCREEN pages from MOBILE pages?

I read in a Microsoft MSDN article recently where it is a good idea to have the main landing page as index.html and detect if the browser is using a mobile and instead load a different version just for mobiles.
I was wondering how I would implement such an idea since a mobile would have to load up the large version before detecting the compact version. Pointless!
Maybe I should have the index.htm as the mobile version and have it detect the screen size and load the index_screen.htm instead if appropriate (mobile first).
Having problems with the responsive layouts anyway (previous article experiencing problems with templates in responsive) so seeking alternatives here.
I want different content on mobile pages anyhow so maybe this would be the way for me.
Ideas and feedback welcomed and greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry but I don't agree with that approach at all.  Do you realize how long the list of user agents is right now?   And how often that list needs to be updated to check against every possible mobile device on the market?  Now even if you manage to get passed the user agent hurdle, why do you want to maintain two separate web sites?  It's twice the work!
In a perfect world, your content is stored inside a MySql database.  If the device width is XXX, the Reader's Digest Condensed version is displayed.  If the device width is more than XXX, the full version is displayed.

  • How do I download and OPEN from mobile me the documents in cwk format?

    I have multiple documents in my mobile me account that were saved in the apple works format, for example     document.cwk
    NOW, when I download the document from mobile me to my MAC, as that mobile me service is ending june 30th, I can't open the docment.
    I need to know how to open the documents I'm downloading from Mobile Me that are still in cwk format.  Please advise.  Thank you

    You need a Mac computer with Snow Leopard or earlier and with AppleWorks 6. Some .cwk can be opened with applications from the iWork suite but not all.

  • How to get pics and videos from mobile phone to Satellite L450D-128

    Hi
    I have a Satellite/Satellite L450D series/Satellite L450D-128 and i am a bit thick, i also have a samsung 5600 which i want to get pics/vids from - tried to connect my phonebut it couldnt connect the driver and seemed to be having lots of problems.
    I thought maybe i could bluetooth from my phone to my lap top but dont think it has blue tooth?? Does it?? and if not can it??

    Hello
    Is it necessary to use Bluetooth connection?
    For my mobile phone I bought an external card reader. So I can copy the files from mobile phone to computer and backwards.
    It costs maybe 10 Euro and therefore no additional driver is necessary! :)

  • How to set full-screen page displaying automatically  on portal.

    one viewset included two views (named <b>topView</b> and <b>detailView)</b>
    putting a <i>table control</i> in the <b>detailView,boz</b> of many columns of the <i>table</i>  exceed the width of portal screen,which result in the  <b>topView</b> is the same width to the <b>detailView</b>.both of the two views exceed out of the full-screen width.but i don't wanna move the <b>topView</b> when i drag <i>scroll horizontal bar control</i>. so i added a <b>ScrollContainer</b> into the <b>detailView,and</b> put the <i>talbe</i> control into it.
    the confusoning is :i don't know how to set the the <u>width</u> of the  <b>ScrollContainer</b>  cotrol , to keep it  full-page displaying any time on portal .
       u know the IE'Screen resolution setting maybe different ,e,g,:1024786px  and 800600px.

    HI,
    Give the width in % instead of mentioning in pixels.
    ie. for full width, give 100%.
    Make sure the layout is GridLayout.

  • How to fix the screen launched from UWL

    Hi, Expart!!
    Please let me ask concerning subject because I couldn't find similar topic from past questions.
    Now I'm in troubled by following situation.
    At current project, several portal roles are allocating end-user.
    Then if one end-user has only manager role, the screen fron launched from UWL is the ivew of navigation of mangager role.
    But if one-end user has another role in addition to manager role,
    the screen fron launched from UWL is  the iview of navigation of another role, not manager role.
    So, I would like to fix like when launching screen from UWL, that screen is the iveiw of manager role.
    Is there any setting to avoid to catch the iview of another role's navigation?? 
    This phenomenon happens only manager role.(launching screen from UWL)
    Conerning another roles,  even if end-user has several roles, launched screen is displayed as the view of navigation of each role.
    I will very appreciate for responding this. Thanks.

  • How to seperate (unlock) frames/pages?

    Hello. I have a dokument of 80 pages of text. Now my problem is that when i edit in one page/frame the other pages/frames relativise to the changes (for eksample move up or down). Now i want them to stop adjusting to eachother synchronically so that I can edit one page/frame with the next changing aswell.
    To kind of unlock the pages from eachother, non-synkronize them. How do I do that?
    In advance, thansk for your help!

    It sounds to me like your text is a single "story" running through a series of "threaded" frames. This is normal when working with long passages of text since normally you want text following an edit to either flow back to fill a deletion or push down to make room for additions. In susch cases empty space or "overset" text ends up at the end of the thread in the last frame of the story.
    There is a sample script included with InDesign called SplitStory that will break the links between the threaded frames, making each one a separate story. If a paragraph happens to cross the boundary betwen two frames it will be split into two parts, and the second half will be treated as a new paragraph. If the style calls for a first line indent, that will be applied to the first line in the unlinked frame.

  • How to seperate BI 7.0 from ECC 6.0..

    I have very strange situation. My friend has installed SAP ECC and BI demo IDE on hard drive and I am currently practicing BI 7.0. on his machine. However when I login to the IDE I can do both the BI and ECC transactions (eg: RSA1 and Me23n ) in the same client. I am using client 800 to login..
    However due to this problem I am not able to successfully configure source systems in BI. How do I go about this problem ? It seems like BI is embedded with ECC 6.0 as the same server.
    I am new to SAP but have been in data warehousing for many many years. My goal is to learn the complete SAP BI dataflow..
    Since he is not here right now and is the SAP expert, therefore I would appreciate all the inputs that I can get to fix this problem.
    Edited by: it guru on Feb 2, 2008 3:35 AM

    Hi,
    When using BI within an SAP ERP system, you must have a different client for BI to the ERP data client (the client also needs to have a unique logical system name to the ERP client). Most of the extractors cannot extract and load within the same client.
    You should create a new client and logical system name for the BI system. You will also need to use steps from SAP note 122679
    to change the default client for the BI transactions (i.e. RSA1) to the new client.
    Cheers,
    Mike.

    Sync it to your computer:

    You'll need to do that to burn it to a DVD, and a sync via iTunes is probably the most direct method.
