Redirection in wap

littlefool

Hi,
I'm creating at the moment a wap application in php for our mobile module at the university. The application exist of a normal website and a mobile wap site.

Both sites need a logon. Because I want to reuse my code as much as possible, I created one .php script that checks if the user is registered or not. Depending on the result, the user will be redirected to the home page or an error page.

This works fine for the website, but the wap gives errors while redirecting.
this is what I get on my Nokia 40 SDK 3rd Edition emulator.
"Data you are sending will be redirected to another server. Continue?" -> OK
"No server access"

This is the code in my php script

try{
   login($user,$passwd);
  if($pagetype=="HTML")
      header("Location: ../home.php");
  else {
      header("Location: ../wap/home.wml");
      header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");
      exit;
}
catch (Exeption $e){
  // redirection to error page
}

The header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml"); is something that I found on another website that explains why the Location is not working on Wap, but this is still not working for me.

I did found on this forum a solution which works and allows me to continue my project.

else {
   require('../wap/home.wml');
   exit;
}

But I'm not very sure if this is a good way of doing so.
Is there anyone who can tell my why my Location is not working and how it should work?

Thanks

Try using a full URL instead of a relative one.

The file may be to large for the mobile device you are trying to access it on. I have two mobile sites and while building them and testing I found out some pages were viewable on my PDA with Bluetooth, but not on my phone. I condensed the files and now they show on both my PDA and cell. I don't know if this is a issue in your case, but you can at least keep that in mind. If you have Flash 8, they have a great mobile content building in it.
