Where do I start?
I am very interested in learning how to my my website - www.sarahlean.com, WAP compatible or making a mini version available for mobile phones. I have tried to look for some kind of tutorial pages that can help me learn the WAP coding language but to no avail. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Is there any good tutorials out there on the web that can help me learn how to code simple WAP compatible pages?
Thanks.

You can make mini-versions in several ways.
First off, if you are writing your code in xhtml, then this should display on a modern phone anyway, but you can enhance the look by using css: Code:
... <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css" title="default" media="screen" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="print.css" title="default" media="print" /> ... </head> For WML, try w3schools for starters. I think the best method however is to use a server-side technology (PHP or ASP etc) and check what the accepted mimetypes of the device and display content accordingly - ie if the device is a phone, then limit the content and size of images. This can be done by calling different templates, that are device dependant. For example, you have a template for: xhtml for browser html for crappy IE mhtml for xhtml compatible phones wml for wap enabled phones. More on mime-types. Hope that helps a bit.
