reading news in Chinese on palm


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to read the news in Chinese from newsinchinese.com on your palm?

If so, how do you set up the gadget to make it possible?

Thanks in advance,

Yonitabonita

I'd be happy to make any changes to the site, or set up a special feed for the Palm if someone wants to figure this out and let me know if any changes are needed.

I don't think you're going to get the pop-up functionality on a Palm browser - there's no way to 'hover' your mouse over a word for a start. Perhaps there's some way to make it work, but I can't see how - and even if you did it's likely you'd need a different method for every variety of mobile device.

What might be feasible though is to do a line by line or paragraph by paragraph version, so you had something like

News Line 1

Pinyin Line 1

Eng Line 1

News Line 2

Pinyin Line 2

Eng Line 2

but that's going to take up a lot of space and be a bit ugly to read. I've also yet to see a nice pinyin font for palm.

Have you got Plecodict's Instant Access working?

Hi yonitabonita,

I don't think you can do it. I also tried to open it on my Palm Blazer web browser. Still no luck.
