HTTP Streaming Problems over M1 3G/GPRS Network

Aug-17-2008 By miketeo

Recently, I have upgraded my SIM cards from the 2G ones to the latest 3G SIMs. I have noticed that under the 3G SIMs, all the WAP pages when viewed on my phones (Nokia N82 and 6230) will include a set of “navigation toolbars” at the top and bottom of the WAP pages. I believe this is an extra feature on the WAP gateway which has intercepted the HTTP traffic to provide some ease of navigation functions for web pages on M1’s subscriber phones.

This is for my personal notes as it takes a while to search through that labyrinth of information on the Nokia web site. The Nokia Symbian SDKs are at this URL.

Firefox natively does not support and render WML. wmlbrowse is intended to try and implement as much of WML (Wireless Markup Language) as possible in Mozilla/Firefox as an extension module.

“File Format Not Supported” for WAP/WML

Nov-8-2007 By miketeo

I have been coding a bit of WML for a WAP site recently. All seem to look good until some Nokia phones like 6100i and E-series fail to display certain WML pages. These pages work on 6230 and my Sony-Ericsson K750i. It isn’t until I run the WAP site through WAP Proof that I manage to discover the problem. The <img> tags on these problematic WML pages fail to include the alt attribute. Apparently, the WAP browsers on these phones need to see this attribute in the <img> tags, or else it will raise the "File Format Not Supported" error.
