Pocket Internet Explorer Emulator

Conrad11 · 2 Apr 2007 at 00:08

Hi there,

I am developing a site specifically designed for Pocket Internet Explorer. Since I don't actually have a device with it on with me, are there any emulators out there for this?

I need to see what's seen by the users for specific screen resolutions, colours in screen etc, different versions....

Thanks.

I am new to the whole emulation type thing. How do I actually run the emulator?

Device emulators run inside Visual Studio. So you may want to download the free Visual Studio Express if you don't have access to the proper version. Oh and that SDK linked is quite old. There should be newer ones available with mobile 5.0 and 6.0

You can also get non Microft cell phone emulators from http://developer.openwave.com

Well in VS2005 pro you kick it all off through the Device emulator manager which is on the Tools menu. Not sure if this appears by default or after installation of the sdk. See if you have that option first I guess and also do some reading on msdn. Also note that the lastest SDK also feature older emulators, ie I know for a fact the Mobile 6.0 one has 2003 and may have older.
