Mobile Form/PDA application

Question

User1203855871 posted

Hello,

I started developing asp.net mobile web application but the UI is very limited (one control in each row). I want to target application for PDA's only to get better UI. I know that it can be developed using old version of HTML. Is there any such support in Visual Studio to develop web applications for PDA as we can develop windows applications for PDA. I am using visual studio .net 2003

Thanks,

Pavi

Well, the limiting factor on PDAs is their size, so you may only get 1 control per row.

If you are using VS 2003 and ASP.NET, there's a good tutorial on using mobile controls here:

If  i use html instead of mobile controls then I can use more than one control per row as PDA size is better compared to cell phones. I am not sure if can use .NET to develop such application. When I select smart device application then I have much better options but only windows application. If I can develop smart device web application then options will be much better. I am not sure why web application option is not there for smart devices
