Mobile phone access to servers

[ph3n0m]

I am just wondering about the following.

I have a phpBB set up on a blacknight server.

Now I tried to access it using a mobile phone - and to my suprise I could (yay). However whilst I could log in, etc and navigate around the board - I was unable to post new topics, or reply to existing posts - even though my account is set to moderator level.

Would this be an issue with the way phpBB handles a user posting or is this a server issue?

edit:

The phone in question is a Nokia 6610i - using WAP to access the internet

It could be the phone browser having issues.
I'd recommend trying it in a WAP emulator to see how well (or not) it works.

Why would that be a problem since I can see everything the board has to offer and as mentioned previously, I can log in succesfully and making a post or reply should be done in a similiar way

HI Peter,

It may be a case that the phone browser can only handle GET requests. I'd highly doubt it is the server. I'd also think its probably not the phone. Its most likely a poor compatibility with the code being generated by the application more than anything else.

phpBB is open source after all and isn't exactly perfect
