Show all headers | View raw

I have a design that displays well on a desktop monitor. When the design 
is viewed on a "small" screen such as a mobile phone the layout fails in 
that its unreadable (you need to zoom in and scroll about to read the 
content).

My idea for a solution is to dynamically strip the 
nice-to-have/non-essential elements and so give more room to the "real" 
content. Working under the assumption that accurately deciding if a 
screen is small will be problematic I'm thinking that the way forward is 
to put a checkbox on the home page with a checkbox that reads "Mobile".

If the user checks the box the nice-to have elements are removed.

Is this appropriate?
