WAP and WML Resources
I found Beginning WAP, WML, & WMLScript by Wei Meng Lee, Soo Mee Foo, Karli Watson, and Ted Wugofski (Wrox Press, 2000) extremely useful in the writing of this chapter. You may also want to check out Learning WML and WMLScript: Programming the Wireless Web by Martin Frost (O’Reilly, 2000).
There are a number of great WAP and WML resources online:
- WAP Forum
The official site of the group that develops and guides the WAP standard.
- AllNetDevices Wireless FAQ
http://www.allnetdevices.com/faq/
A great place to start learning the ins and outs of WAP and WML.
- Openwave (previously Phone.com and Unwired Planet)
Openwave creates browsers and development tools for WAP applications.
- Openwave Developer Program
Openwave’s Developer site provides comprehensive resources for WAP developers. It is a must-see.
- W3Schools.com
http://www.w3schools.com/wmlscript/
The W3Schools site offers hands-on tutorials on both WML and WMLScript.
- WMLScript Primer
http://www.webreference.com/js/column62/
This WebReference.com article is a good starting place for learning about WMLScript.
- Gelon.net
A WAP portal site that contains links to hundreds of existing WAP applications, organized by category.
