Does anyone know what the restrictions are for programming a webpage that will be viewed both by computers and pda's/phones? can you use css? flash? tables? nested tables?
Any help or direction would be great! Thanks,
Kathy

All that stuff works, though the Flash player typically supported is no later than 4. The key thing is to have a way of detecting the operating system, to detect when, for instance, Windows Mobile is being used. Check out the source code of the Google home page, and you'll see what I mean (they have it automagically converted to PDA version via a scripted detection routine).
