Mobile browsers and devices that are supported in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and in SharePoint Server 2007

On This Page

INTRODUCTION

This article discusses the mobile browsers and devices that are supported in Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. Mobile pages refer to the pages that you can access by using any of the following URLs:
  • http://URL/m/
  • http://URL/_layouts/mobile/default.aspx
Note To use the http://URL/m/ URL, you must enable it by using the following command:
stsadm -o activatefeature -name MobilityRedirect -URL http://URL
By default, the http://URL/_layouts/mobile/default.aspx URL works without any additional enabling.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
