Is it possible to develop an addon/plugin in opera mobile like greasemonkey which will load users script when a web page is loaded every time?
Check if you can go to opera:config#User%20JavaScript in your Opera Mobile. If this address works and the setting exists, you have User JavaScript support and should be able to write any scripts you want by pointing the "User JavaScript File" setting to a suitable file or folder on your phone's file system.
(If the setting isn't there I'm afraid you're out of luck - for now - I have no idea what versions of Opera Mobile support User JS..)

We are creating Instagram ad for the product (from ads manager panel) . It contains the link to the webpage , where one of the steps is that you need to upload the picture.
Problem here is that ad is opened in some kind of "instagram" browser, not in like chrome or safari. And when user tries to upload the image, the process crashes.
Is it possible to force open this ad in default browser?
About thirty seconds after I initiated the bounty, I found the solution. So simple it was difficult...
Instead of, e.g.: https://www.instagram.com/p/LetTerS -- simply replace with https://m.instagram.com/p/LeTtErS/
When opened on desktop, Chrome (tested) quickly resolves back to "www." - the phone opens the link in a browser properly (tested on Nexus 5X, Samsung Something).
I can't figure out what is causing this issue on the BlackBerry Z10 where the mobile menu that I created for disinherited.com won't properly function as links.
The menu items won't click through to their href's or show their dropdown menus(javascript).
It works well on a number of other browsers and devices. This is just one that won't work.
Anybody have any suggestions as to what browser compatibility issues I might be missing?
The "About Us" link doesn't do anything for me (even on Desktop browsers).
I would guess that there might be some CSS (a layer maybe) that is interfering with the click/action event. I would suggest connecting remote web inspector to see what exactly is going on.
Did you know that BlackBerry 10 has some of the best remote web debugging capabilities?
Plug your device in via USB
Enable Settings -> Developer Mode
Open http://disinherited.com in the BlackBerry browser
from your desktop browser, open http://169.254.0.1:1337
You are connected to the live content, running on the BlackBerry, from your desktop browser. From there, you can inspect, debug, profile what your website is doing.
How to convert the existing flash site into mobile version existing site in form of the cakephp frame work. We thought that html ,css,php,javascript may work all mobiles.We dont know exactly. Please tell us how many possible way to develop existing site into mobile version and also need to detect the from which browser the request is coming whether mobile browser or pc browser.
The existing site link is :This site convert into mobile version
Take a look at this post. PHP is handled on the server. No browser needs to support it. CSS and XHTML are supported pretty well by mobile browsers. Javascript support is limited.
I would like to add value to my website that I have developed at the moment so that user can check on their mobile phone.
My questions:
Should I make different template for mobile version and full version one?
Like creating mobile.example.com for mobile version?
Does Opera Mini not support JavaScript? I have a mobile phone that has Opera Mini, it seems that JavaScript was not running. Do all Opera Mini not have JavaScript on it?
Does Opera Mini support full W3C standard HTML and CSS? Or do they have a different one?
Is there any emulator to view or test website in different mobile phones? For example: Iphone browser, Blackberry browser, WAP and Opera Mini.
Thank you!!!
Some websites offer an automatic conversion of your existing website. This converted, mobile friendly website can either be hosted at a new domain, or a "mask" can be applied over your existing site. Check out www.webtosmartphone.com, which easily converts basic websites automatically; a quick line of code and your website will be automatically resized and viewable in the most popular smart phones. If it is not converted automatically, you can request for a custom conversion.
It's up to you whether you want to make two different websites for mobile and non-mobile devices. However, if you do so, make sure to have a link from the mobile site to the full site to enable users to switch to it.
Opera Mini does support Javascript which certain restrictions (eg. on asynchronous operations). Be aware that Opera Mini uses a proxy based approach and the JS is executed on Opera's servers which imposes certain restrictions. Plugins like Adobe Flash are not supported.
Basically, Opera Mini supports the same standards as Opera Desktop since they share the same rendering engine (Opera Presto). However, due to device restrictions, some features like CSS rounded corners are not available in Mini. See Opera Mini 5 standards support for more information, but know that meanwhile Opera Mini uses Opera Presto 2.4, the rendering engine used in Opera Desktop 10.53.
For testing websites in Opera Mini, try MicroEmulator which is Open Source and comes with a resizable skin that allows you to emulate different screen sizes.
Hope that helps :)
You should most definitely adapt your output for mobile devices when the content is accessed via a mobile device. Whether you will do it by separating the mobile presentation on a subdomain or a special folder or not is totally irrelevant.
/ 3. Mobile is way more than just Opera Mini. Various mobile device browsers support various degrees of rich content (JavaScript, CSS etc.) You should look into detecting what features are supported by the visitors browser/device and serve the appropriately rich/"poor" content. You should take a look at WURFL and Device Atlas which are two main databases of mobile device useragents which allow you to serve only the content that the useragent can consume.
There are many emulators out there, some better and some worse, that emulate various mobile device browsers. Off the top of my head, the two I've used are Yo Space SmartPhone Emulator (website broken atm) and Mobi TLD's emulator. There are also vendor specific (Nokia, SE) developer tools you should be able to find that emulate the vendor's devices.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are the way to accomplish this. It does mean that you will need to review your site's use of HTML tables, and convert into a CSS based design.
The CSS Zen Garden is an excellent resource for showing what is possible.
A resource to convert your current
site into a mobile device friendly
format is Skweezer.com. Simply enter
your website's URL, and it will
display your website in a
mobile-friendly version by removing
large images, CSS styles and page
elements that will not display
properly. You can use this as a
template, or starting point, for
making a mobile CSS profile for the
site. To provide an alternative CSS
stylesheet for users with mobile
devices, insert the following code in
the head of an HTML document:
<link href="/css/global.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="handheld" />

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.
Examples:
Digg.com
Twitter.com
Google.com
