WAP site design


Hi,
Anybody here done anything with WAP site design, i.e. pages in WML?

I've been playing with it but I'm surprised how non-comliant some of the phone browsers are!
I coded my site around my Ericsson phone, as well as some of the older Nokia WAP browsers, but then when it came to viewing it with a Motorola T280i parts of it looked totally screwed up

WAP sites may be small but they certainly take as much if not more effort to design than old HTML sites!

All interesting stuff, I'm already using CGI::wml from Perl.

All I need right now is for Motorola to fix their wap browsers, they really suck compared to Ericsson & Nokia

Oh no! I thought the browsers were bad, it's happening with the mobile phones too?

I think I am going to sit this one out!
