| Prerequisites: |
| |
| This is an introductory course. Basic HTML, XML, XHTML s preferred. |
| |
| Course Description: |
| |
This course earns its price with its in-depth coverage of important, firm standards such as
WML, WMLScript and XHTML. In addition a technical overview of WAP 2.0 is provided in this updated course. An overview
of Open Mobile Architecture (OMA) initiative is also provided.
Development of software for mobile telephones and other portable devices with Wireless Application Protocol (WAP),
Wireless Markup Language (WML), WMLScript, XHTML, Active Server Pages (ASP), ColdFusion, Java, and other languages
and technologies.
The Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), particularly its client-side markup language (WML), scripting language
(WMLScript) and XHTML. All interface elements will be described, as well as WMLScript logic, events, and communications
capabilities. Server-side coverage goes to Perl, Java servlet programming, and the Nokia WAP Server. |
