ASP.net mobile application development

I have an existing website for schools and colleges management which is developed in ASP.NET,C# and SQL Server.

Now I am planning to support for the mobile applications (like basic models from Nokia/Samsung and for opera mobiles). I know the normal site we can access through some of the devices without any change, but needs to be optimized.

I am preparing another version which will be only few required fields and easy navigation for mobile. For that which method I need to use.

  1. Normal ASPX files with optimized HTML code.
  2. Or using WAP controls
  3. Should I use HTML 5

Please help me to decide.

Solution

  • I recommend using the HTML5 templates(includes Modernizer) that come with ASP.NET MVC 3 and the jQuery Mobile framework. Let the jQuery Mobile framework do all the multi-device heavy lifting for you.
