Navigation for small screens - Opinions?

Hi, I'm exploring possible navigation on small phones, iPad etc. I made a test page with 4 CssMenu's, there are 20 pages but could easily be 50 for the site I have in mind. Loading everything in one InlineFrame isn't ideal though, only one page will be indexed
Perhaps the menu should be at the bottom so it's easily reached by the thumb on a small phone? Opinions?
The test page is here

Thanks!

I uploaded as a WB project
here (regular project, not template).
Perhaps it's not as useful as a template, all images are hot-linked to my site and most pages are just html objects. You could see if it's useful.

Thanks!

I was using a WB Html object with code from here
http://www.w3schools.com/w3css/w3css_animate.asp (see the zoom).
I'll try to recreate this with native WB objects though, perhaps Css transitions at onload.

Thanks for this! Downloaded your templates yesterday. They have given me an idea as to how to revamp my own site.

Here is another idea
http://www.beleuramyhome.org.au/videoclips.html
It offers an open ended number of menu items-all resulting display in an Iframe, check on your mobile phone to see how it looks
Cheers

I am using this on other pages where I have actual PDF documents showing not video clips
