    1020We need to :
    1121* Detect that a mobile device is being used
    12  * [http://wurfl.sourceforge.net WURFL] - an XML library of mobile phone capabilities
    1322* Provide an optimised screen size & navigation
    14  * [wiki:BluePrint/CSS#MobileView CSS for Mobile]

     28
     29Detection:
     30* Client-side with javascript
     31 * http://www.modernizr.com/
     32* Server-side most reliable:

     34  * http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pywurfl/
     35  * [http://code.google.com/p/djangobile/ Djangobile] can be used for ideas on how to integrate into web2py

     37* If not,possible then call fallback to client-side:

    2146''Use far-future cache expiration headers. This will prevent the browser from having to send a conditional GET request.
    … …  
    2348Keep CSS and JS components under 1MB. Of course, 1MB is enormous and your components should be much smaller than this, but don’t bother splitting a component into separate requests for the sake of cacheability unless its size approaches 1MB.
    2449Consider using the HTML5 application cache if it’s important that your components persist in the cache for a long time, or across power cycles.''
