Summary:
This complete, practical guide to writing mobile websites and
applications shows developers how to build a powerful mobile web
presence. Readers need knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a
server-side language; the examples use PHP, but are easily adapted to
other languages. The book does not use J2ME, but uses mobiles' web
browsers and other standard features with XHTML Mobile Profile (XHTML
MP) and Wireless CSS (WCSS). Examples illustrate each technique,
focused on real-world solutions, pragmatic tips, and fast results
rather than theory. Whether you want to provide website customers
with new ways to access your services, or build applications to keep
staff up to date on the road, this book covers it: adapting content
to the capabilities of target devices, saving bandwidth with
compression, creating server-side logic integrated with a mobile
front end, sending and receiving SMS and MMS messages, accepting
mobile payments, and developing voice and touchtone responsive
systems.
