Browser question

[ktklein]

Using: Motorola Droid X2 w/GB 2.3.3 and Rooted

Is there a way either the native browser or even Opera Mini browser can be configured when needed to not go to a mobile website? There are some instances where I want the standard website but I keep getting redirected automatically to the mobile-optimized site. If there is a way, I do not know how, so any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks.

This is programmed into the website itself. Which is why, even with any mobile device, some sites give you the mobile content, and others, usually older, give you normal dhtml type coding.

There is not a method I know of, from a stock mobile, that will allow you to, ie, emulate a version of IE for example.

Depending on the browser version, there may be an option to "stretch" the screen.

Every time I have been interested in using the desktop version of a website, at the very bottom of the web page, there has been a link for it. Usually says "desktop version." I know you are looking for a way to auto direct yourself to the non-mobile site, and, maybe you already know this. But, if not, at least it gets you to the regular site.

Good point,

No, there are ways to invoke hidden native browser settings and for Opera Mini too using certain commands like about:debug or opera:config respectively. I did kinda getting it working on the native browser but am still messing around w/Opera Mini. I don't like relying on the website for the redirect link to the full site because not all sites provide that option.

Credit where credit is due. I'm just happy there are thouse out there w/the answers - I don't need to take credit when I pass along the info - that would be most uncool.
