PHP,MySQL & WML

[Anon]

Hi,

Does anybody know whether I can use this combination?
If so is there anywhere I could go to find out more about getting started?

Cheers

Mike,

I haven't actually done this but you should be able to. The important thing to
remember is to pass the correct header for the WML at the start of your
PHP script.

header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");

Let me know if you have any questions,
Chris

Chris,

I have tried this but because WML needs its own header i.e.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">

So when I send this header first:

'Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml'

it tells me that the header above must be sent first and vice versa.

Any more ideas?

Mike,

Do you have your MIME types set? If not the following lines need to
be added to your mim.types file, normally located in the conf directory
under your httpd directory.

text/vnd.wap.wml wml
text/vnd.wap.wmlscript wmls
text/vnd.wap.wmlscript ws
text/vnd.wap.wmlscript wmlscript

After that is done, here is the code that I use to output WML.

header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");
echo("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n");
echo("<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC \"-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN\" \"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml\">\n\n");

Let me know if this doesn't work, and I'll try to think of something else.

Do you put the header outside the <wml> tags ?
If so, do you put that header in a <? ... ?> tag ?

Natmad,

This is the header which worked for me:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">

<wml>

</wml>

Hope this helps

Regards
