i was going to look into wap ... is very scrict on coding..

but i never had the time to do so.

best bet is to loolk at some examples. also depends what the clientt wasnt able to be accessed.

if your gonig to do so... to test the wap site use oprea .. saves on wap charges.

Wap is a protocol not a language, you want WML which is basically the equivalent to HTML.

You can add some stuff to asp to make it generate WAP instead of HTML. I read it in a magazine ages ago but I can't remember how to do it. Confused

If you want a site to work on a mobile all you need to do is write it in WML.  You can use ASP/PHP or for that matter any server side languages.

Be careful with WML though, in a few years it's going to be out of date when all mobiles can render normal web pages,
