It sounds like you haven't properly configured your web server. Since you've mentioned .htaccess files I'm going to assume that you're using Apache web server. Depending on your OS the layout of your web server configuration will vary. If you're using a Redhat variant or Windows then your configuration will all probably be in one file. If you are using a Debian variant then you likely have a site-available and sites-enabled directory with each site in separate files. Figure out how yours are laid out and look for the VirtualHost configurations. In the configurations which use files in site-available this will go in 2 separate files and in the more standard installations this will all be near the end of httpd.conf. Here is a sample configuration script which does what you are trying to do:

# Ensure that Apache listens on port 80
Listen 80

# Listen for virtual host requests on all IP addresses
NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /www/example1
ServerName example.com
# Other directives here

</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /www/example2
ServerName example.org
# Other directives here

</VirtualHost>

I would put these two sites in the same directory as they have done in the sample. If the content of the two sites are the same then I wouldn't use separate DNS names. Just use separate virtual host name. So name the sites: yoursite.com and mobile.yoursite.com.

Once that is setup you'll probably want to redirect to the mobile site automatically when someone visits with a mobile device. This is a long topic in itself so I'll leave that as further reading.
