    The best way is to design+code a website that suits mobile/ handheld devices.

    You need to use a PHP function to detect mobile browser and when it will found a mobile browser it will deliver a mobile version (XHTML/CSS) of the site.

    You need a fresh design+content for mobile display. Detect PC/handheld device using PHP or JavaScript and accordingly direct the user to PC/ Mobile version of the website.

    Well you'd have to do that yourself. The PHP function just redirects mobile users to your mobile site. Take a look at jQuery Mobile to easily build mobile-friendly websites.

    I think by "a mobile version", he meant one you make yourself. There are services like Instapaper Mobilizer which generate mobile pages for you, but they strip ads which god forbid should happen with any site owned by a DPer.

    Automgaically....ha ha.

    I had already pointed him out that he will need to have a fresh design+content which suits for a mobile display. The next post was to point him how he could detect the browser and re-direct the user to the respective sites/ pages.
