I'm currently looking at rewriting a current application which allows devices running a Terminal Emulator to connect to it to display screens for interaction with the user and a server program.
I want this to now use a browser on the device as opposed to a terminal emualtor, but I have some questions/problems.....
How can I tell the type of device trying to request a page from the server? With a terminal emulator I can pick up it's IP address and look it up in a DB Table to get its screen parameters. Is there a similare method?
Is it possible to resize ASP pages being requested by a mobile device to be viewed in a browser or do I need seperate pages for each device type (i.e.: some devices will be 800*600 some will be 200*200 etc.)?
Any advice appreciated.
