Just wanted to talk real quickly about some updates I made to my site today. Nothing too major, just putting some of the finishing touches on the site construction itself before turning my focus towards building the actual content.

I've added a mobile version, just using media queries and without a 'Switch to Full Site' capability... yet. If you're not familiar with media queries, it's basically just querying the browser to find information about the host machine. Typically, for a mobile version, the query looks similar to:

<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen and (max-device-width: 480px)" href="mobile.css" />

That's about as basic as you can get in doing a mobile version.

I've also added a site search to every page. This is using the built in search module that ships with SilverStripe 2.4.1. It's not too useful yet, as the information on the site is pretty easy to find ( since there is not much info ).

That is all, not much to report but it's something.
