Hi,
I really like the template, however, how the Native Iphone & Handheld optimization and style support WORKS?
Will the iPhone template open automatically if people visit the site from their iPhone?

And please, how to add the video so it could be viable in iPhone too?

Thanks a lot!

yes, it autodetects if the page is viewed by an iphone or other handheld.

you can costumize the view as you want from the iphone.css

what video are you talking about ?

Thanks for your reply.
I have few videos which I would like to present on the site and I'm not sure if I could use one of your tools or some other component so it is also accessible/viable in iPhone.
Any ideas?
Thanks
PS: is there any way I could test the iPhone view online? I haven't got the iPhone but need to tested ;) Thanks :)

in the template manager you can choose which version should be standard . try to change that into iphone and see the results... what kinda videos are we talking about ? youtube embeded, vimeo or what ?

also you have 2 positions to place any modules in (mobile top and mobile bottom)

http://www.testiphone.com/ can be a useful tool for checking to see if it displays correctly, but it doesn't do browser authentication.

If you're using firefox, type about:config into your address bar.
Right click > Add new string

In the first box write:
general.useragent.override

In the second box write:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 2_2_1 like Mac OS X; de-de) AppleWebKit/525.18.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/5H11

This will authenticate your computer's browser as an iphone.
then go to testiphone.com and it will display as it would on an iphone
it'll still load flash elements, so it's not an end all be all, but for the most part it's what you need.
