I want to have jQuery Mobile only if user is on a mobile or a tablet.
I was thinking to use Simple-RESS. This script allow me to access device screen.
The problem is that tablet screen resolutions are approaching desktop resolutions.
How can I correctly target mobile and tablet ? only with user agent ?
I think user agent is the best bet. You can however use viewport metadata tags and media queries in your header to adapt your site to different screen sizes using different stylesheets.

I have a report embedded on a website. Is there a way in the html to configure the report to change dimensions if a user is viewing the page on a mobile device?
Are you using power bi mobile for that ?
If yes you have to rotate mobile in to landscape view to get full dashboard experience, Otherwise you get limited data.

You can use the Responsive Design Mode tool in Firefox to pick a mobile phone configuration or create a new one with custom settings. You can access this tool, as reported on the provided links:
From the Firefox menu: select "Responsive Design Mode" from the Web
Developer submenu in the Firefox Menu (or Tools menu if you display
the menu bar or are on OS X).
Picking a mobile device will automatically set the correct screen resolution, user-agent string and device pixel ratio (DPR).
According to my client's research referenced here: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/1354762?hl=en#n2 you are only allowed one ad for Google on mobile pages.
Also in Google rules is stated that ads may not be obscured, and hence it flows that they cannot be hidden.
The problem that I am currently sitting is that the site is a single site for both desktop and mobile views, and that to the best of my knowledge, I would have to hide content on client-side to ensure that only one ad is shown on the mobile view, as opposed to the three on the desktop view.
How do I achieve 3 ads on a desktop view and only one on the mobile view for a single site, without hiding the extra 2 ads on mobile view? Please advise?
If you are using WordPress then you can use "Google Publisher plugins (https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-publisher/) .
Actually it automatically adjust ads size according to screen whatever use mobile or pc
I'm looking for iPhone, iPad, Android and other mobile and smartphones web browsers simulators on x86. I would like to check how my web application written for standard web browser will be displayed on these devices.
The dev kits for these platforms include platform emulators, in which you can run the browser for that platform and load your web site to see how it will look.

if you just want to quickly view how a webpage would render at various mobile device resolutions then synthphone.com is a nice little webpage...
http://synthphone.com
you can even link directly to a url via query strings. for example, here is one that should load the Sencha Touch 2 carousel. Use your mouse like a finger to slide around the images etc.

I have designed my site with a 900 x 600 fixed background image. On the computer it looks fine. How will it look on a PDA device? Will I have to design it separately for PDA?
How should check whether my site can be browsed effectively from mobile phone?
What should I do?
Try using Opera's "small screen" view (View > Small Screen). This does a pretty decent job of simulating a mobile screen. Try it on Opera's own site. Note that they use a "handheld" type stylesheet that kicks-in when you're viewing on a handheld or switch to small screen mode.
You can download Google's Android SDK for free to test on.
To test on iPhone, see the iPhone Tester. There's a button on the bottom-right to rotate the iPhone into its widescreen state.
The OpenWave Phone Simluator is supposed to be good.
You can try the mobi online emulator.
The Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK for Smartphone contains "Windows Mobile 5.0 based Smartphone Device Emulator images & skin files"
Finally, some general guidance: Web Content Accessibility and Mobile Web: Making a Web Site Accessible Both for People with Disabilities and for Mobile Devices
Instead of browser detection, you can supply alternative stylesheets for handheld devices. With
<link rel="stylesheet" href="small.css" type="text/css" media="handheld">
The advantage is that you only need one version of your site, the difference lies in the stylesheets. You need one additional css, while with browser detection you would need different versions of every page in your site. The downside is that not all browsers support the media attribute for stylesheets. But the most modern browsers do, and the support for it is growing.
If you are interested, I recommend having a look at an A List Apart article.
BTW, if you are not using css yet, switch to it immediately, no matter which solution for your problem you choose. CSS rocks!
You can also get device emulators for the Blackberry range of machines.
Well, you could always throw some detection javascript in there to check the type of browser, then redirect to a different site that is formatted for mobile devices. This seems to be the norm for most sites.

Digg.com
Twitter.com
Google.com
