Internet Explorer Mobile:One-Column Layout
Fig 1. One Column Layout
I had a complaint from a customer of mine, that the Internet Explorer Mobile(Windows Mobile 5.0) does not render their HTML reports in a tabular form.
At first, I was wondering if they found a defect in our custom HTML exporting feature.Then I realize what happened.
We're using a sequence of TABLE,TR and TD tags to have our HTML content rendered into a tabular form. Some of the users accidentally had switched on the One Column feature of the Mobile Internet Explorer. This layout forces the Mobile Internet Explorer to render all content in a single column without horizontal scrolling.

Thank you so much
Hi!
Thank you very much for this tip!
I am using all kinds of device emulators from visual studio 2008, since i'm adapting an existing application to various resolutions.
And the one from Windows Mobile 6.1 came with the one-column layout by default!
I never would have guessed it, since all others were just fine.
Bye
Thank you very much for this. I was just about to start destroying a webpage to make it work.
