Eurobilltracker on Pocket Internet Explorer

Post by MDeen »

I know there is a version of Eurobilltracker for WAP enabled telephones, but with PDA's becoming mainstream (and I having bought one) I am trying to access the site with Pocket Internet Explorer.
This works as good as is to be expected (big sites don't render well on small screens), but note entry is no problem at all.
However, the transfer area to add multiple notes does not work. It uses javascript and I have downloaded Pocket IE powertoys to enable javascript, but although JS works on other sites, using the transfer button on the EBT website does not work.

Does anyone have any tips to get this working?

Maybe I can reply to myself...

Pocket IE is still not so good. It does work, but transfer from note data from the inputfield below is not possible. I also find Pocket IE to be bad in scaling to large screens (I have a MDA Pro with 640x480 screen, and Windows Mobile basically treats it as a 320x240 screen)

I am using Minimo now (latest "stable" is 0.16) and that does work quite good. At least transfer from notes from the input field does work.
Do turn off "Single column layout", otherwise rendering is lousy on big screens.
However: Minimo still has bugs, is horrendously slow and stupifingly large.
One nightly build even broke the transfer from notes and made Minimo crash on that. In a later build this was fixed though.

What I would really like now is a "light" version of the website, at least without the stats on the right, because that messes up the layout on a small screen.

Shouldn't this be possible to configure with your personal settings?
Settings->Site appearance
Disable all boxes to hide the right column completely (recommended for low screen resolutions).
It's worth a try, I think.

I didn't know that option! It does make an improvement.

However, Minimo is not useful at the moment. I believe I had 0.16 installed, and the paste function is broken. It does not paste what is in the copy-paste buffer. I just installed the latest nightly and it breaks the paste function even more: it crashes Minimo.

So: for entry in the simple form it is okay, but advanced with the use of "transfer" is not possible.
