Lightbulb How do I get rid of mobile iclub on my iphone??

I normally view iclub as a normal internet page on my iphone but the other day I decided to try out the mobile version... don't like it. How do I go back?

I went to the bottom if the moble page, theres an option for Normal viewing. Clicked that and ever since it's been normal. I appreciate the I-club staff working on cool things like but there's nothing better than surfing I-club than normal desktop view.

Mobile versions of pretty much EVERY APP I've seen tend to SUCK! If I can't do all the same stuff that I can do on a desktop then the APP really isn't worth my time IMO.

I can't surf the web via mobile view. I HATE it, not just the i-club mobile view, but for ANY website.

Go to iclubs home page.

Then in the address bar type in:
about:debug

then hit enter.

-Then go to your "menu" button and click "more"
-Scrool down to "settings"
-Then scroll all the way down to "UAString" and select "desktop"

Once you do that, back out of all the options till you get back to iclub. Then refresh the page and the normal view should come up.

Only thing that ive noticed, is even tho my UAString is now set at "desktop" whne I reopen my browser and go back to iclub, it returns to the mobile version

So i go thru the steps again, and when i get into UAString it is still on desktop but i just click it again then refresh the page.

So i guess for now thats better than no desktop view at all

Phones are fast enough now that mobile sites are pretty much worthless and just annoy me.
