HTML, DHTML, XHTML; it's enough to make a grown man cry.
Well, look out! There's a new player in alphabet-town:
"WAP." So what is it and why
should you care' WAP stands for "Wireless Application Protocol"
and it allows people to access the Net using wireless
devices like mobile phones and other gadgets.
It's estimated that by the year 2002 there will be over
800 million wireless users around the world. Eventually
all wireless tools will come equipped with WAP as
standard issue. That's a lot of possible viewers for your
website. The problem is that wireless net-surfers
will not be able to access your HTML-driven site. Their
devices can only read sites built in (get ready for another
acronym!) WML.
WML stands for "Wireless Markup Language."
(Are you taking notes here') So if you presently have
a website built in HTML and you want mobile users

http://wappy.to The first online WAPsite builder complete
with hosting.
Keep in mind that the viewing area on a mobile device
is a whole lot smaller than that of a computer monitor. So you
need to be short and concise. Plan on about 10 text
lines per WAP "card" (instead of "page.") Due to slow transmission speeds
typically 14.4 to 19.6 Kbps you need to keep text and
graphics down to bare minimum.
Wireless phones use "microbrowsers" to surf the web
so you need to make sure the web cards in WML look good on
a wireless device. But what if you don't have that kind
of luxury' No problem, hop over to
http://www.wapdrive.net and you'll find something
called "The Wapalizer" that will allow you to look
at any WAP site using your regular browser. Just type
in the URL and a new window opens up that imitates
a mobile phones interface. You can browse through
the entire site to make sure everything will be
viewed correctly by your mobile guests.
So there you have it. WAP and WML, two good
things that just naturally go together. If you presently
have an HTML site you might want to consider making
a version of it in WML as a sidekick, thus opening
yourself up to a whole new audience; a mobile one.
