wap.ratp.fr is the mobile website for the parisian subway company. I already warned them that they needed to send their viewport meta tag to all users about 2 months ago, but they still do browser sniffing before deciding if they should send that viewport meta.

Does this site work in Firefox for Android?
OS: Linux → Gonk (Firefox OS)
Hardware: x86_64 → ARM

I've got a direct contact with the project leader, they will update their WURFL database. I've said it's not a timeproof solution but since the website is in maintenance mode they don't want to invest too much time in it right now.

Good stuff. Thank you for encouraging them to choose an alternative approach to UA detection. I hope that your suggestion is taken into consideration when their site is someday rebuilt. In the meantime, great to have the site pick up the latest WURFL db to enable their mobile version for Firefox OS.

Has the latest WURFL db all the necessary information about FxOS ?

(In reply to Julien Wajsberg [:julienw] from comment #7) > Has the latest WURFL db all the necessary information about FxOS ? Unfortunately, that's a loaded question. WURFL contains >600 properties for each entry. The obvious ones have been reviewed and updated but it's still possible that this site is using a property in a way that causes problems.

When entering http://www.ratp.fr/, the mobile device receives the desktop site on: * Firefox OS * Firefox for Android * Android Stock Browser * iOS So there is no specific treatment for redirecting from desktop to mobile. When entering http://wap.ratp.fr/, the mobile device is redirected to http://wap.ratp.fr/siv/ on: * Firefox OS (but not readable characters too small) * Firefox for Android * Android Stock Browser * iOS # For Firefox for Android GET /siv/ HTTP/1.1 Accept: */* Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, compress Host: wap.ratp.fr User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Mobile; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0 <meta content="width=device-width,user-scalable=no" name="viewport"> <meta content="yes" name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable"> <meta content="black" name="apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style"> <meta content="telephone=no" name="format-detection"> <meta content="RATP" name="application-name"> <link href="static/public/png/ratp-touch-icon.png" rel="apple-touch-icon-precomposed"> <link href="static/public/png/ratp-touch-icon.png" rel="apple-touch-icon"> <link href="static/public/png/favicon.png" rel="shortcut icon"> # For Firefox OS GET /siv/ HTTP/1.1 Accept: */* Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, compress Host: wap.ratp.fr User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0 (no specific meta)

(In reply to Julien Wajsberg [:julienw] from comment #7) > Has the latest WURFL db all the necessary information about FxOS ? Yes. At least version 1.5 has all the necessary information. See http://tools.scientiamobile.com/?user-agent-string=Mozilla%2F5.0+%28Mobile%3B+rv%3A18.1%29+Gecko%2F18.1+Firefox%2F18.1 Julien, any progress on the issue?

So it will be fixed mid-november. To revisit then.

This is fixed. As a matter of fact. The experience is now better on firefox OS, Firefox Android than iOS 6 for wap.ratp.fr On the other hand the site www.ratp.fr gives a bad experience on all devices, iOS included.
