Minor comment: The HTML contains an input with a giant massive string:
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE" value="… here 303 469 characters …" />
Quite insane. I guess output of the framework.

The UA detection is happening client side and it's not detecting Firefox OS.
http://www.np.edu.sg/Style%20Library/scripts/mobile.js

I'm not sure why they commented 
		//(navigator.userAgent.match(/mobile/i)))
Which would provide the UA detection for Firefox OS.

They need to be contacted so we can work together on a solution.

Closing as we are not working on Firefox OS anymore.
