Mobile web apps
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 5:08 pm
I'm developing a little contact manager which I want to send details to from my cell phone (motorolla v51 I think)...
I can think of a few ways to get data/contacts from my phone to a web app:
1. Send an email formatted in INI format of the body (PITA)
2. Load a WAP version of the page
I have flipped through this quickly:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/CR-mobile-bp-20060627/
And I just read the WAP on Wiki but I'm wondering if anyone else has suggestions???
Ideally I would fill out a FORM returned as a much simpler version of the web app (no tabs, etc) maybe just the domain, login and be shown a quick FORM version of the full blown thing...
What should I be reading up on? How would you deliver such a FORM which accepted say first, last name, age, street, etc???
