Using a user's mobile number as his login???

Post by keitai »

Hi there,

Here's the deal, i am creating a website where peepz can bookmark some content if they are members. Now i want the bookmarks and there content available via wap.

I am creating a simple wapsite (mysql/php/wml) but i would like to avoid a login page. So i came up with the following thought:
For the wapsite a user mobile phone number is his (automatic)login and all his bookmarks are collected.

Or should i use the environmental variable:
HTTP_X_UP_SUBNO
Which is the unique 32 character subscriber ID of the device.

But how?

Is this possible?

thnks in advanced.

I think you just answered it yourself. Why bother buying a caller id interface when you have something to track them with?
