Hey Guys,Thanks to your help..i was able to create my site..and its working pretty well.I finally landed up coding it in XHTML and used PHP for my server side scripting.One small thing that I wanted to know, is how do you set the resolution/user interface for a site?Thanks a lot,

Small correction(s): it's spelled XHTML .And yes. It depends what phones you are looking after. WML is supported by every internet enabled phone but it doesn't have much features. XHTML is supported by every MODERN phone with internet. You may use every XHTML scrict and every CSS as you would be doing on a computer screen, but you'll have to do it for small screens after all. Some BRAND NEW phones are even able to render other things such as SVG for example, but that's another story .

Hey Guys,Thanks for the response that you guys have given. I have been trying to read material on XHTML and Cold fusion. But I have not been able to find any reference material that talks about the integration of XHTML and Cold fusion. Can any of you pass on some reference material for both XHTML and cold fusion which will help me build the site. Also does it cost to use Cold Fusion or is it free? and I connect Cold fusion with any backend database for e.g access?Thanks,

Let me know if you need anything else.

Hey,I was just going through the tutorials in W3 schools and came across the tutorials for WML. The question that I have is : Can we directly open XTML pages from a cell phone or do we need to make pages using WML only?Also where can I find some reference material on cold fusion?And how can I try using these things on my personal computer? I mean how do i make the database and everything...Thanks,

Hey,Thanks for the instant reply. I think i hav got an answer to my question. I will try using XTML and php/cold fusion and guess it should work.About the type of phones, I am not sure yet, but most of them are nokia/motorola wap enabled phones.Thanks once again

Hi,I am very new to programming and have a telecom background. However for one of my school projects I need to create a small application which will be posted on the net and can be accessed through the mobile phone.The application I want to build is going to be a small one page survey form with about 3 -4 questions and multiple choice answers. The users will select the appropriate result and this needs to be stored in the backend.However being very new to this field I am very confused over what tool , language and database should I use for my applications. Can someone please help me in answering the following query1. What tool should I use to develop my application :XHTML/Mobile.net/Java Scripts?2. How can I connect the front-end interface with a backend database and what database can be used with what front-end?3. What would be an easy way of sending a link to a mobile phone? Should I use a WAP push?4. If I need to capture the phone number of the person filling the survey how can that be done?Thanks in advance
