Develop "iPhone friendly" websites

Web developers – or anyone interesting in testing the iPhone browser – can now download a free browser simulator which mimics the iPhone browser on their Mac desktop. The software is iPhoney (thanks Tim), and the download is completely free.

Test your iPhone-enabled Web 2.0 applications and compatible web sites.
Open any website that works with Safari (use Safari 3 beta for the most accurate experience).
Rotate to see websites in either portrait or landscape orientation.
Show or hide the location bar for a full-screen iPhone experience.
Simulate the iPhone user agent, to test browser redirection scripts.

The software allows users to load any number of websites to test rendering in portrait and landscape mode – think hotdogs & hamburgers.

Until Apple decides that it’s necessary to release a real API for people to develop real applications, I won’t ever make a crappy iPhone “App”.

But I’m all for making websites iPhone-friendly, of course.

I thought the iPhone had a full web browser, which should mean that I don’t have to do anything different to make it work on the iPhone. If this isnt true then its one step bellow Opera mini 4 which woirks perfectly with any site.

your right… the iphone does display any website but it is annoying to have to zoom on on something all the time, iPhone sites are nice because you can just scroll and click. I am developing a mint iPhone site soon to come! luke
