Years ago, I attended a Microsoft Tech-ed session in which the speaker was
saying Windows Mobile server would automate the reformatting of web pages
when a mobile device connected to the web page.

However, when I looked on the Internet for more information on this topic,
newsgroups were suggesting mobile devices get redirected to a "mobile" web
page.

Therefore, my question is, if we are a "Microsoft shop", what is the best
way to develop web pages for mobile devices. Also, can someone direct me
to a web site that contains good information on this topic?

Thank you,

Cyrus

This might not be the best newsgroup to ask. The people on this group work
with Windows Mobile/CE devices and not the HTML side of the house, but as a
start, you can check out this site for ASP.NET mobile web applications:

I hope this helps.
