Problem using the BBC website (Dolphin Browser HD) - keeps going to the mobile site

I am having problems with the BBC website. I am using dolphin browser HD on my HTC desire. However it wont take me to the full site, it always goes to the mobile site (www.bbc.co.uk/mobile). How can I switch it to the full site?

In the default browser, I dont have a problem, it goes to the full site.

I have entered the full site in the address bar, but it still brings up the mobile site.

Any help appreciated.

This page claims there should be a "Go to desktop site" link on the mobile pages, but I've just had a look and I can't see the links. Might be worth sending them an email.

Thanks for your reply. I couldnt see the "Go to desktop site" link either. Which is why I asked.

I will contact the BBC, and let them know. Thanks for replying.

The "low graphics" versions of the news pages have all disappeared too, so now it's a choice of the barren mobile or poorly laid out full pages.

Yeah I noticed that too. The new mobile news site is awful.

Yes, it's like choosing the sublime or the ridiculous now. I always used the low graphics pages whether on mobiles or computers because they were laid out so well, it was easy to find stories of interest.
