When creating a website suited for mobile devices, it is useful to create and serve different versions of the website, adapting its content and style to the device capabilities.
A new tutorial, posted on Forum Nokia Wiki, explains how to use WURFL, an open source project by Luca Passani, in order to identify devices and to serve the right web templates and resources for each of them.
