</span>Triad skin was never developed with mobile devices in mind.<br>
It was designed to provide a basic three columns layout:<br>
Left sidebar, centre content, right sidebar.<br>
How would one translate that into a useful layout for mobile devices?<br>
I welcome any ideas on this.<br>
<br>
Apart from how to adapt columns for a mobile device, there is the<br>
problem of image sizing. A desktop or laptop device can show larger<br>
images than a hand-held device, so images need to be resized (via css)<br>
for mobile devices, adapted to the screen size. How would a wiki<br>
editor cope with proportional image sizes?<br>
<br>
To adapt font sizes in text and headings should be simpler.<br>
<br>
The display of menus and images are some of the most important differences<br>
between desktop and mobile devices I think. There are probably others<br>
as well I can't think of right now.<br>
<br>
Is a skin (default or other) actually possible to serve both desktop and<br>
mobile devices equally well?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Hans<br>
