The only site I've done with a handheld stylesheet is:

As far as testing goes, not sure how reliable DW's previews would be
considering how bad their design view is.
Other testing options include:

Hi, a project I'd been working, client asks if I can port the layout for
handheld devices. Current layout is pixel width with every pixel
carefully culculaated in different sections/columns, so there is no way
I can simply adapt the style sheet. At this stage, it's simply an
inquiry from client whether I am competent to do the stylesheet for
handheld devices. I am very keen on getting my hand dirty even it means
sacrify a candle light dinner at a romantic soothing restaurant on
Sunday night. I have never done layout specifically for handheld
devices, think this is a great opportunity, but I don't know how much
complication (apart from learning curve) it involves. The articles and
books involving with buildibg accessibily websites that I read all these
years, some of them touched the handheld devices but no much, and I
don't think I remember all I have read.
First and core question: structure wise, is it just a matter to making
the layout liquid? I happened to download the Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
trial version last week, and see that it has 'preview in device center'
that covers many brand of handhelds, with many different models and
display sizes. The layout (3 columns) I mentioned here doesn't break, it
displays first column, second column and the third vertically. It
appears that layout intergrity doesn't suffer except herhaps differnt
margins/paddings needed. Does this means I have the basic covered?
If you have done sites for handheld devices, could you be so kind post
it here so that I can take a look and perhaps study your style sheet.
Recommendation on building accessible sites for handheld devices also
welcome.
Thank you!
