Insert jpg-images in wap page?

Hello!

I'm trying to create wap pages containing images.

I have to say that I do not have any experience with wap. I found out that with wap 1.0 (wml) it is not possible to show images except from WBMPs. But I need to show coloured jpgs.

With wap 2.0 it should be possible, shouldn't it? So I created an xhtmlmp page ... but had to realize that my handsets do not support wap 2.0. Seems to be very difficult to create wap sites containing images for just the "average user" not owning the very newest mobile phone. I tested the pages with Samsung E600 and SE t290i.

So is there any chance to create wap 1.x pages containing images?

Would be very nice if somebody out there could help me!

The thing that springs to mind first is that you could use something like GD Library on the backend of your PHP scripts, call wbmp's inside an image tag if the phone does not support jpg and then do some nifty URL rewriting to send requests for the wbmp to a script which opens the jpg and converts it on the fly to wbmp.

It would work. Hope this helps.

Hello!

The problem is that I need coloured images ... wbmp wouldn't help. If the phone doesn't support coloured images like jpg or gif then I don't have to show an image anyway ...

But it is definitely not possible to show coloured images with wap 1.x, is it?
