[wp-hackers] ipad & wordpress for ios - mini app or "plugin"?

[Japheth Thomson]

Hi Steve,

Another alternative could be to make a mobile version of the form so that
visiting it from a mobile device shows you the cut-down version instead,
maybe with a hint to say if you need help please use a desktop.

It might not be an option for you, but it'd be simpler  :)

Cheers,
Japh
