Some.
is yes, what are the browsers available in PDAs
Opera, IceBrowser, NetFront, Escape, AvantGo, Pocket IE and others.
Unlike the desktop browser market, where people can get completely
adequate browsers for the cost of downloading it, the PDA, mobile phone
and embedded browser market has more potential to be profitable. The
user exchanges money for the browser when they bye each device. So many
browser manufactures provide browsers for use in that context and some
specialise in the PDA/Phone/embedded browser markets (e.g. NetFront and
Escape).
It is also not unusual for a PDA/Phone/embedded browser to give no real
indication in it's OS or GUI (and frequently User-Agent headers and
navigator object information) as to which specific browser is being
used. The browser may have been sold/licensed as a component and
integrated into the device by its manufacturer. Fortunately modern
browser scripting practices don't require any knowledge of the specific
browser in use so this is not a problem.
and which javascript version do
these browsers support ?
That varies. Assuming an implementation of ECMA 327 ("ECMAScript Compact
Profile") should be safe. Many will actually implement a full ECMA 262
3rd edition version. In practice (W3C) DOM support (and dynamic DOM
support) is more significant. There is a tendency for browsers on small
devices to be less dynamic than desktop browsers (device memory
constraints and slower processors may necessitate that in some cases).

Hello there,
Are there any out-of-the box handhelds that run Linux/Apache/MYSQL and
PHP? Does Redhat, Suse, or Gentoo support any handhelds?
I know the Zaurus comes close, but I've heard people have problems
running LAMP applications on it.
It would be cool to be able to run any LAMP application on sourceforge
on a handheld computer.

I was given a Compaq pocket PC with windows mobile 2002.
I immediately began looking into how to program it and Java seemed
initially to be a good choice.
To my surprise I found it wasn't as straightforward as Java for the
desktop. Even finding a JRE for the PDA is a nightmare.
The PC came with Jeode, a version of PersonalJava.
PersonalJava is no longer supported by SUN.

Hi.
I have a need for users to access my ASP.NET pages from PDAs. I notice that
you can deploy to different browser levels, eg IE5, HTML3.2, etc. So
deploying the forms to HTML3.2 will work for PDAs.
Is there much else to it (other than testing to make sure it looks and works
ok)?
Also, how can I set it up to 'browser sniff' and serve up HTML 3.2 pages for

We've got a web application that is viewed on various PDAs as well as on
desktop machines. We're trying to come up with a good printing solution.
The report is fairly simple. We've thought of generating a PDF, or just
printing a generated HTML page. The issue around PDF is that every client
needs a pfd viewer, and can PDAs handle them? The problem with HTML is that
we can't control page headers, and browsers usually add the url and...
