Is there a way to show a skin object if the website visitor is using a mobile device browser.

 

i.e. if using iPod touch, iPhone, Blackberry touch screen, etc.... then show this skin object.

 

I want to use the Snapsis NavList since touch screen browsers can't "hover" -- but I only want it visible for mobile browsers.  Anyone know how to do this?

I would  check out the MobiNuke threads on these forums. It renders a different skin and scaled down content if it is a mobile browser.

Thanks Rodney,

Rather than dev 2 different skins, I just wanted a menu system that works without needing the mouse to "Hover"  -- I was able to get the NavList menu to work with javascript ... only test on iphone but assume it works many other smart phones... probably not all

 

1. Download mdetect.txt at http://www.hand-interactive.com/resources/detect-mobile-javascript.htm

2. Change mdetect.txt to mdetect.js and put it in your skin folder

3. Download and install Snapsis NavList (http://www.snapsis.com/Free-DotNetNuke-Modules.aspx)

4. In skin.ascx, make sure you have the following near the top:


<%@ Register TagPrefix="simpleNav" Namespace="Snapsis.DNN.Skins" Assembly="Snapsis.DNN.NavList" %>

<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= SkinPath %>mdetect.js"></script>



5. Wherever you want the NavList, paste the following (in skin.ascx -- you can change the CSS!!!)



 <script type="text/javascript">
<!--

if (DetectMobileQuick())
{document.write("<style type=\"text/css\"> .showifmobile {visibility:visible; position:absolute; top:10px; z-index:4; left:10px; font-size:12px; background:#EEE;} </style>");
  }

else {document.write("<style type=\"text/css\"> .showifmobile {visibility:hidden;position:absolute; top:10px; z-index:4; left:10px; font-size:12px;} </style>");
  }
// -->

</script>
   
   <div class="showifmobile">Mobile Menu: <simpleNav:NavList id="navList"  Level="0-3" IncludeTabs="*" ExcludeTabs="" runat="server" />
   </div>

I think it's also possible without javascript. Just integrate a CSS with @media handheld {  .showifmobile {visibility:visible;} }
