You did well I was unable to make it work. I think I have fixed it now. This from my iPhone 4, I am not wealthy enough to have a 4S.

Glad it work for you anyway!
David

Alan,
Test from full site - can you confirm you are getting the email alert please?
David

Confirmed - received all 3.

oh and thanks Rocco, did a few like that, that day!!

Berylvt,
There is no App Store app yet - this is a web.app. When you go to the m.exploroz.com main page you should see a message appear that says to install this web.app click on the share button and select Add to Home Screen!

If you do not see this I will need to investigate as it should be there for iPad - anyway to install the ExplorOz Web app manually - go to the home page and then select the little share icon (should be in the middle at the bottom) - then select Add To Home Screen. This will install the EO web.app to your device, it will have nice icon and boot screen when you click it.

Have a try and let me know what happens.
David

Thanks for that. I was using the ExplorOz home page not the mobile home page, which is why I couldn't find the prompt. Now I have found it, downloaded it, and it seems to be working just fine on my iPad.

Excellent glad the message appeared, now I can tick that off on iPad. There is still a long way to go but shop and forum are now working in mobile. Hope you enjoy using it in mobile mode let me know if you run into dramas with it!
David

No problems so far. I'm looking forward to being able to upload blogs and photos from my iPad. Good work so far!

David and Michelle,

Is that share button still there for the web.app ? I am on the mobile site on the home screen. The prompt comes up of the web.app but there is not share button at the bottom middle. Have tried pressing the share symbol on the pop up, but that does not do anything. Been trying for a week but cannot find the link.

Brett....

Brett,
it should be if you are using Mobile Safari on a iPhone/iPad device. It is the browsers inbuilt button - you may need to single click on the page to have to have it appear if it has disappeared - but it should be there see image:
Image Could Not Be Found

Hum that is strange - I installed a system to auto direct the browser to the correct version regardless of the URL so www. or m. should take you to the right place provided the detection system decides if you phone is a mobile or not.

Can you do me a favor and try to use the feedback form to send me any message - this form will send through tags that will help me to work out what is happening.

I have android devices on my desk 2 of them in fact and they are working fine so I suspect it is something in the setup of your browser or something. Anyway start with the feedback page please?

PS You will need to be in full Site mode to use the feedback form - sorry know it will be a pain to see but I have not got that page converted yet!

Just trying it out on my galaxy s3 and all sends to be working fine.

Good day. I tried it on my Blackberry, the screen where I should enter such things as Log in detail are all black and I can not see what I am typing. Not sure if it available for the Blackberry but thought I would let your know.

Cheers

David. Sorry to be so long getting back but have only recently logged on. I can't open the feedback page on my Android tablet. So can't send the requested message of course. Sorry.
Kevin

David,to be a bit more specific,with the full site open on my android when I press Contact the Articles tab lights up as well and I get the Contacts page. If I keep pressing the Contact tab lightly I will finally get a drop down menu with Feedback as the last item but pressing it produces the Contact page again and lights up the Articles tab. ALL works normally on my PC.
Also on the Andriod there is no dictionary with Spell Check.
Hope this helps.
Kevin

Kevin, Thanks for the update - on the full site try locating the link in the page footer - it is in the middle area of the screen. See if you can get into it that way. Sorry it is a pain - I have written a test page at http://www.exploroz.com/mobile/test.aspx - try this the last line is the User-Agent - this is what I need to see.

done!!

See my question above -the app is still being tested and is not in the app store yet. You can only download it from the mobile site home page.

mikehzz, Thanks for the feedback. The hangs could be related to my making changes, I install some updates all the time and sometimes they are wrong and cause a JavaScript error (when js errors occur on this mobile platform they cause the interface to stop working). I did several hours of testing last night whilst watching the TV and I was happy that most of the little funky hangs have gone away. I suspect I will create more problems as I convert more areas but over the last few days I have re-written the UI and installed a whole new scroller system and enhanced the page to page transitions. It is a hell of a lot of work but we are getting there. I am working on the articles (tools, tyre size calc systems) to ensure that all articles work at the moment. Then Treks, Classifieds, Places, Blogs - oh gee I am depressing myself writing this list. Must go and get on with it.

David

It doesn't happen all the time as I am at the bottom ok with this one. Just what you need...an intermittent programming problem that me be hard to replicate. :-)

mikehzz,

I know about this one but interested in why it is happening in landscape on the iPad - the scroller template system I am using recalculates the page size every time the page loads to allow to hold the header at the top and deal with certain scrolling actions. What happens is that sometimes page images are latent (ie they take a few extra milliseconds to load) and the page size has already calculated. It should/may happen in either mode I would think, just depends on the loading of images.
I am still working my way through the system to set a fixed size of all image holders which will get around the problem. There is a way to test this - if you scroll to the top of the page and then continue to scroll up you will see a message saying "Pull down to refresh" - do this and the page size will recalculate then you should be able to get to the bottom (this is the only action on the pull to refresh action at the moment - it does not yet reload the page).
