- Device emulators are primarily used to test mobile Web applications. These emulators help to display Web applications on a Web browser, as they would appear on a hardware device such as a cell phone.
- During an application execution, you may encounter slow response time. This is because the composite control (created in the application) has to create child controls.
- ASP.NET mobile controls enable a user to target a wide range of devices that include Web-enabled cell phones, pagers, and personal digital assistants (PDAs). They add elements in an application configuration file to support mobile device rendering.
- You can create mobile Web pages from the MobilePage base class and add mobile controls from the System.Web.Mobile namespace.
- In order to customize ASP.NET mobile Web pages so that the mobile controls should appear differently on different mobile devices, you should use device filters, templates, and property override features provided by ASP.NET.
- If you want a List mobile control to appear as a page with header, footer, and text just like a document with a heading title and a footnote, you must define device filters for the control. You will then create and set templates for the header, footer, and the text for the List control.
- The ApplyStyle method is used to copy the non-blank style elements of the specified style to a control. It will overwrite the previous styles of the control.
- The App_Browsers is used to contain site specific browser definition files. It contains browser files. These files are XML files to describe characteristics and capabilities of the browsers.
