Howdy,
For the past two weeks, I've been playing around and implementing a
mobile web site using the ASP.NET 2 Mobile UI Controls (in
System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace).
When trying to read browser capabilities by casting Request.Browser to
MobileCapabilities, common attributes like IsColor, ScreenPixelWidth,
ScreenPixelHeight are often wrong. I've tried on a variety of color
mobile devices and IsColor always returns false...
Something is strange here, and I'm not sure what MS is doing to
determine the MobileCaps.
Has this been a problem for anyone else?
I've built WAP pages before in JSP that read the UA-Profile from the
HTTP Request header, fetch the XML URI therein and parse it for the
true and accurate MobileCapabilities.
Have MS completely forgotten about UA-Prof on mobiles?
