Exactly. Drilling and dragging through the documentation is unproductive.

Seems logical.

Why not have the web server detect if you are on a mobile device or on a PC. If you are on a mobile device (iPad or iPhone) then drilling and dragging may be acceptable. If you are on a PC (Mac) then please give the developer a more productive layout and organization of the documentation.
