=== ZM skins for mobile ===
Earlier versions of ZM (1.25/1.26) supported XHTML and mobile skins which you could enable via ?skin=xml and ?skin=mobile
They were meant for application developers to extract information for their apps and run ZM on mobile devices. These skins are no longer maintained
and instead ZM has a [[http://zoneminder.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api.html REST based API ]] to replace the functionality.
As far as mobile skins are concerned, ZM will likely discontinue support for skin=mobile after 1.29. Mobile users can either use one of the front ends above or use the standard web interface of ZM from a mobile device.
