    Not sure exactly, but go to your settings in your mobile browser and look for 'user agent' or similar. From there you should find an option to select desktop mode. Some mobile sites have a link, usually towards the bottom of the page, to view in standard or desktop mode.

    I believe you can type "about:debug" in the address bar, but google it to make sure. I haven't used it, the browser I use has that option.

    BTW, try not to double post.

    Dolphin browser has an option in settings that allows you to view as "desktop."

    I have seen this before, sorry I can't link it because I have not been able to locate it.

    "Open the browser window
    In the browser address bar type about:debug and enter.
    It will appear that nothing has happened until you go to menu/settings and scroll all the way to the bottom.
    There you will see a User Agent option, select Desktop.
    This will allow you to the view the page as it was desired."
