Ok, logging in on psp is now possible, so now I'll list what you can't do on a psp.
Scroll overs don't work, so you have to know the complete url of the page you want, as navigation is a scroll over menu. You can only use top 2 buttons in the menus on char. and guild pages, as that's all that will show (the rest of the menu won't drop), so you can't form raids w/o knowing the url for it. Movement on quest is impossible, but if you're on a square with an npc or an entrance, you can interact.

Thanks for letting me know.
I'm not sure what to do about some of those issues.
I don't understand why the PSP doesn't have a decent web browser.
The menu can be fixed, but questing is pretty hard to sort out because it requires AJAX - even IE6 has support for that
I wonder whether there are any error messages? Javascript errors?

So far no error messages or javascript errors. An update for psp firmware will be available this week, but I doubt it will fix anything. It could be an effort at limiting the amount of memory used, as psps don't have enough memory to load alot of pages. This was more an informative thread than a please fix it thread. You can't expect all features on a mobile browser.

It's a shame, because the PSP must have a similar processing power to the iPod Touch.
They could have stuck Opera on the thing.

I changed styles to see if the other menu type worked (Thanks to Socio for the recomendation), but it still doesn't work right. Instead of drop menus, the buttons in the top menu act as links to a specific page. Community leads to boards, Character leads to the member's page, world goes to quest, etc.
