Description

PDA Simple skin (simple-pda.xss) generates CSS file that contains comprehensive set of style class definitions and exceeds 25KB in size. Browsers on many pda devices limits total content size to 100KB, and thus it is necessary to minimize the content size. Also, the cellular network throughput as well as the CSS processing performance is limited on those devices. Since, minimal skin family already provides comprehensive styling, simple style for PDA should be kept minimal.
