I've just set up my wap site at freethemes.atomic-concept.com/wap.htm. Most of the pages seem to be working fine except a few where I get the error message "Something is wrong with the page you tried to access..."
I have validated the page at www.w3schools.com and everything seems to be in order. For the death of me, I really can't seem to figure out what's wrong.
A few examples of this error is on "J-L" page 5 freethemes.atomic-concept.com/wap/jl5.htm and "M-O" page 4 freethemes.atomic-concept.com/wap/mo4.htm.
Extremely grateful for any help, thanks! 
BTW, the links work fine when viewed on a web browser but not on the t68.
Sorry Arnold, just typo on the link for page 4!

hey mark, page 4 is really screwed even on the browser (error 404)
page 5 is interesting as it does not exceed the allowed bytes in a page.
will investigate further. |

Alrighty, thanks Arnold, I'll try it and see. Real troublesome as I've no knowledge whatsoever of databases so I've got to code it all manually in simple language. |

No luck there Arnold. Even removed the hyphen just in case but still the same error. |

cant see the problem with it myself, have u tried changing the doctype from transitional to strict and re-validating it?
if i remeber correctly there is a separate doctype for WAP devices anyway which is stricter still, transitional is really only for browsers

Thanks for the tips guys but I may have found the problem. It seems the t68 browser doesn't recognize "&" and "_" and gives a page error. Even if the link is to a file with those symbols, it will not work. Strange... Anyway, I've changed them and removed the foreign characters and it seems to be working fine now. Thanks! |
