h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

on http://www.bbc.co.uk . Good to see, but the mobile version seems not to work. Is it just me?

The Post link doesn't seem to be working either.

were you moving when you tried it?


p.s. yeah, i thought it was cool when I checked the beeb main page and the link was there!

No, just tried from my desk and the link doesn't go anywhere.

i checked the mobile version - it worked

the first time i did it i checked my credit before and after and there was no change (h2g2 for free) but i did it again a minute ago and it cost me 70c

but still the guide in my pocket

Works fine for me on both my mobile and pda

I'll have to try this now I've finally got me smartphone up and going But, can we use the HTTP web doobry on the phones to go to the 'normal' h2g2 and be able to post etc?

Not with normal phones, no. You need cookies and javascript in order to log in, and to the best of my knowledge the only mobile phones that come with javascript support are smartphones. PDA users should have no problem logging into the site and post normally, the plain skin works extremely well on those

It is a smartphone, so I should be able to then? its got java support, and cookies and such like I think; its the Nokia 6630

Java and javascript aren't the same thing. However, the only way to check it'll work is to give it a go.

I'll have to go check it out a bit later I think

I didn't think I had a smartphone but I can have the guide in my pocket I've got a Sharp GX25
