I aint sure if I have asked this question in other threads as well … but my question have still been unanswered … what I need to know is that while using Opera mini… or browsing site on the mobile.. are there certain restrictions while using HTML or CSS ?? I got totally confused with certain terms like Screen Stylesheets and Handheld Stylesheets… while getting the media type, there was a mention that we gotta use some screen or handheld stylesheets …. depending upon the media type … just not sure how else to ask ….

    Stylesheets for media=handheld were supposed to be used by mobile browsers, but once browsers became more advanced, browser vendors started ignoring media=handheld, because they can display media=screen now (browser chooses what media it supports).

    A more modern and much more flexible approach is to use CSS3 Media Queries that let you set certain styles only when selected criteria match, e.g. minimum screen size. Keep in mind though that mobile browsers report virtual (zoomed out) screen size in width media queries, and device-width is closer to physical size.
