I have my PH username and password saved on the browser on my mobile (HTC Desire HD if it makes a difference) so when it logs me out after a period of time I don't have to type in my username and password again, it automatically fills those in.

Problem is, PH Mobile often takes several attempts at getting it right, it redirects me back to the login screen several times before accepting my details. I previously had this issue with my old iPhone 3G too although I put that down to me typing like a fat-fingered mong and entering the details wrongly.

Oh, another thing, when we PH Mobile users view our "My Stuff" page, the numbers of pages should be separated as in the regular version. I mean, if you look at the regular version of the site (and you have the bad parking thread in your stuff) you'll see this:

The BAD PARKING thread
[1 2 3 ... 308 309 310]

and it is easy to click on individual pages. Whereas, if you are using PH Mobile, you'll see this:

The BAD PARKING thread
[123...308309310]

It it much more awkward to click on the number 2 given the smaller screen and big fat fingers. And the whole 308309310 thing looks messy. So can we have spaces between the numbers?

Thank you! biggrin

Oops, should have looked in the stickies. Isn't it quite ironic that people usually bypass stickies?

Anyway, yes, I think that might be what I'm talking about.

It sounds like the normal problem with the mobile site login box which can be worked around by going to the homepage and then clicking members and logging in from there.

Personally though, I'd recommend switching your forum skin to "Big Blue" and then just using the full site.

The mobile site is great for Blackberries and other devices with buttons and small screens, but offers less of an advantage on devices with large touchscreens.
