I have a new phone, a Nokia N81, and whenever I use it to go on the BBS I get asked to log in so I do, then I get the message saying “Thank you for logging in etc’ and then all of a sudden I am not logged in.

Is this a phone related thing? I can’t log into hotmail either from it. Or perhaps is it because my work puter automatically logs me in?

You need to enable cookies on your mobile browser.

Under 'General Settings' / Privacy Settings there is an option to enable cookies.

Oooooooooooooooohh, look at me with my new phone!

Install Opera Mini if James' suggestion doesn't work.

Is there a specific url to put in for mobiles?
blazey_cpfc
No.

But like Kevin suggested, download Opera Mini browser on the wap, as this will allow you to log into BBS on the phone, as if you were logging in via a computer, no special url needed :)

I can log on. The page is just massive and difficult to navigate on my touch screen. Oh well, the phone is new to me so I'll get better...
blazey_cpfc
Yeah, I have to zoom in and out of the page. It's a pain, not having a smaller page to navigate, but hey ho!

Opera Mini is fast enough for me.
Dave
It's not about speed - it's about functionality

Safari on the Iphone is pretty much a normal browsing experience

I have an LG Voyager. Much cheaper than said iPhone, with all the toys I need...

The bbs is rubbish on the windows phone thingy. I wonder if I put opera on that...

Can you download safari for other phones?
Dave
Don't think so
Dave
Oh and why would you buy a windows phone?
Kevin T
I didn't. I was given it. I only use it for my work emails but would be handy if I could use it for browsing too instead of my personal mobile, but the bbs looks horrid on IE
Dave
opera it is
