Keep in mind thatrepparttar 133626 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 surfrepparttar 133627 web so you need to make surerepparttar 133628 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 inrepparttar 133629 URL and a new window opens up that imitates a mobile phones interface. You can browse throughrepparttar 133630 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.

After all, we're a society onrepparttar 133631 move... and you'd better keep up!
