WML Based Mobile Business

Since 1990s, there have two kinds of dramatical increase in information area: the rapid popularization of mobile telephone and the explosive popularization and application of Internet. The rapid spread and application of these two technologies have directly affected thousands of people's living way. The emerge of Internet has the way that the whole society gain information and the business mode of the enterprise; and the development of mobile telephone has changed the fixed connection between communication and place. After this, the wireless Internet becomes new rapidly developing aspect. It has changed the traditional business mode and our daily lives wholly. Combining the wireless connectivity of mobile telephone and beep call with computer applications has provided us a new scheme of mini-mobile equipment. Also it has showed us a good prospect in enhancing mobile team efficiency.Now, there have two ways to accessing Internet through mobile telephone: one is connecting computer into Internet through mobile telephone in wireless data transform channel; the other is considering the mobile telephone as a terminal and connecting into Internet without computer. WAP emerged under the second concept. As a global standard of all mobile equipment connecting into Internet, it provides with user an open, unified and independent network type and also provides with telecom corporations and terminal equipment a placeless mobile value added business. It also connects the mobile network and Internet so that user can connect into Internet using their mobile terminal equipment just asusing their computer.Network service providers are confronting the problem of 'content adapting' of different mobile terminal as well as providing abundant and dimensional information to users. There are dramatical differences between different mobile terminal, and it also leads to the differences of the contents they receive and access. How to make the mobile terminal of different display size, display distinguishability, different color support and other corresponding properties access the content of the service provider becomes the important problem that providers must solve.If we establish different content type and display mode for every different terminal, it would reduce the running efficiency and increase the service burden. So how to solve or optimize the corresponding operating mode becomes critical to the whole wireless network applications. It is also the main problem of WAP 2. 0 brought forward by W3C and OMA.The solving way of the above problem is put forward while looking back the developing history and prospecting. That is separating content with mode efficiently in server side through the grammar restricted XHTML MP and WCSS in WAP 2.0. And also combining the dynamically processing mode in server side (such as ASP), distinguish the applying terminal and return corresponding mode of layout so as to adapt the content with terminal. The simple example can realize the solving way, and it also has good portability and scalability.
