    From Sys64738@VERT/TXNET1 to All on Monday, November 08, 2021 10:47:41
    I'm looking to set up my web presence for my bbs with web pages that detect mobile/tablet browsers and present web pages tailored to those type browsers by default. Has anyone explored this already so I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel so-to-speak?

    Use responsive CSS3 to change size and layout of page elements based on viewport and @media declarations. This is called "responsive layout."

    Don't use JavaScript. You'll have to do ten times as much coding with JavaScript as CSS3, it will be more error-prone, and it will slow down
    page loading.

    It may take an hour or two to really grok what the DOM is doing with
    CSS3 @media statements. It's a lot easier than messing around with JS. I
    have built many, many websites without a single line of JavaScript that
    look clean and scaled perfectly to whatever device is viewing.

    You can also find free 'pure CSS3' responsive templates online that will
    speed you on your way.

    ecWebv4 (for Synchronet) uses bootstrap to achieve this. You can see it in use at web.synchro.net
