Could you possibly up the font size for the board index, it's really hard to click on it without zooming in, which although not too much of a hassle, it's kinda annoying having to zoom in, or not zooming in and clicking the wrong thing and getting sent back to the main DITL page or to user controls as those both are pretty close and much larger.

I've just looked at this and the text on the 'Board index' is supposed to be the same size are the 'User control panel' and other links. It seems to be a bug in the browser that they don't show the same size. I've reported it to Apple.

Small thing I've been having happen. When I switch from my pc to my mobile the "last post" button often does not take me to the last post I read, but to one a couple posts earlier. Hardly an issue or anything, but I figured I'd point it out.

Do you notice this same issue with the main site. It's the exact same pages on mobile as with full. All that's different is the layout.

I have noticed the same thing on the main pages. It'll do it randomly too, some pages it'll send to the first post of a page, never past where I've read, just sometimes before, it's not a horrible thing, it's just something I noticed.

I only have it happen on the mobile site, never the main, and only for threads that I last checked on the main. If I hit the last post button after I've been in the thread on the mobile site it works fine.

As I say there is no mobile site and main site. The pages you see when you use the mobile site are the exact same pages you see when you use the main site. There is just a different set of style sheets involved. There is one thought though. The way it jumps to messages is to use #markers on the page. There's nothing in the spec to say that the location of the #marker has to be displayed at the top of the page, just that it should be made visible on screen. Is it possible that it is visible at the time, but just not at the top of the window?

I've got an odd sitch the last two (or so) days - the mobile site seems to keep linking me to the non-mobile-optimized forum.
