Welcome

DOE Nuclear Blast pic We are developers for the mobile web, using only open source software technologies. And you might say nothing appears special about this page or our website, but look closer... Click the the 'Display' link to resize your page display. Our website may be plain compared to those designed for desktop browsing, but this site wasn't designed just for desktop browsing. Our index page tried to determine your browser environment and pass that info to our Perl mobile script. Page size is then auto-selected by this mobile website script. Hopefully you got this page sized for your display. Mobile users will be sized using WURFL Device Detection data, if JavaScript wasn't available. Using script adjusted CSS, we vary the same template page for display on different devices. So a lot went on to get you to this 'simple' page.

MobileSiteOS™ Basic

So why should you care? Well, maybe you would like to produce a similar mobile compatible site of your own. No problem! You can download the mobile website software which makes this site possible. Or follow the link below to see an 'as downloaded' demo of our perl mobile website script.
Our goal is to provide simple pages, optimized for small screens, but make sure usage is not limited to PDA's or smartphones. This concept is sometimes called the 'One Web'. By utilizing variable display size adjusted pages, many devices can access the same website with satifactory results. And we only use open source mobile website code: perl, xhtml, css and javascript.
