Hi, Among other things, switching to mobile view on a "desktop" Web browser disables the "advanced" stylesheet through a tiny bit of JavaScript code that sets the "disabled" attribute on the appropriate <style> element.
There is a bug in WebKit that affects Safari and Google Chrome. The "disabled" attribute is not (always) taken into account when set: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25287 In short, switching to mobile view with Safari and Google Chrome only switches some of the styles (styles that rely on the presence of a "w3c_screen" class name on the <body> element get correctly deactivated, those that rely on the presence of a "w3c_handheld" class name get correctly activated), but some styles from the advanced style sheet still get applied, in particular for event dates, leading to a weird layout (dates overflow the visual date background in that case). From a standard perspective, I note that the "disabled" attribute on the <style> element is being standardized within HTML5 and CSSOM but was not defined in HTML4 / XHTML 1.0, AFAICT: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/semantics.html#the-style-element http://dev.w3.org/csswg/cssom/#dom-stylesheet-disabled I suppose a possible workaround would be to remove the <style> element altogether while switching to mobile view (it could be kept in memory and re-inserted in the DOM if the user decides to switch back to desktop view). Thanks, Francois.
