    Wondering would it be possible to get the forum to work for this? It's supposed to be handy to set up (but can't vouch for that!).

    TouchBB is an iPhone/iTouch app that allows you to browse phpBB and vBulletin® forums while on the go. Linky.

    Just to be clear - I've never had a problem with this site either on the iPhone. Works absolutely fine on Safari. The TouchBB app basically makes your life so much easier - instead of having to constantly resize the browser due to the screen size etc, you use the app as a 'skin' for the site. Presents threads in a simple manner, and makes posting on the go easier.

    Was just a suggestion Paul - no worries if it's a big job/ can't be done!

    I looked into this at the time and was not happy to go with it as I could not find many other VB forums using it.The script they emailed me (they don't offer download on their site, and distribute if via email from their site) was not worth the risk putting on for so few users.
