Is it apache or IIS? I ask cos only apache supports .htaccess i think, and apache is usually found on linux... Front page extensions use .htaccess, and sometimes editing it can disrupt the site... Dont know about the image mate, sorry!

@aled that would be cool - I dont know if my free host supports cgi-bin - I'll check - you'll have to leave instructions aswell - as to what the hell I do with it
@ @ @ @ I have broadband aswell - but dont know anything about hosting a server - as you can see my html programming is limited & wml I haven't got a clue! - but it would make sense to have a server with mime types at your disposal... & the cost @ @ @ @

How do I upload MIME types to a server? Also does it make any difference that I can download this filetype through the web?
yep - I have themes .thm files on a free host & I can download them via IE because it is hosting the file - I cannot download via my wap browser though because the server can't define the file type - or some crap - so yes it makes the difference - I have mailed wap41 & they said they added the mime type for themes but it says operation failed - so I have just given up & will put a link to another theme wap site - or set links & leech from their site

(if you are viewing via wap this is a long post)
@aled you were right - it is a zeus server - "upgrading the current Windows NT and IIS based PWP solution to a Zeus/Solaris based product"
@chris gray - I can have pretty much anything - perl - shell - PHP - ASP - python - but I have to pay for this so I dont know if it would be worth it?
@will190780 - IME [Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions] Types tell the end user's machine how to treat a certain file extension when it is served to it by a web server. They go in the web server's configuration or in a .htaccess file
How do I add a MIME Type?
Put it in a .htaccess file. It needs to be in Apache configuration format, e.g. to tell the server how to treat a file with a .cgi extension you would add this using the AddType directive:
AddType application/x-httpd-cgi cgi
Note that you do not use a "." before the file extension. The web server already knows to put this in.
You can have as many entries as you like, as long as they are all on their own line and the MIME type and the extension have at least one space between them.
The amount white space is irrelevant, so tabulating these files will make them easier to review and manage. You can also assign more than one extension to a MIME type by adding to the end of the assigned extension, as long as they are space separated.
sorry if you know this - I dont know it goes over my head - cut 'n' paste my son

@ Everyone...
There seems to be an awful lot of talk in here about Web Space, and FTP, I have to point a few things out;
You will never find a free bit of webspace that supports FTP and .wml. Its not that web space does not like the extention, but its not set up to deal with it. If you have a Linux server, you have the default pages, "index.html, index.htm index.php" and if you have an IIS server, you have the default pages "default.asp, default.html, default.htm index.html, index.htm, index.asp" so when you first visit these sites, and type in the address "www.awapsite.co.uk" the server will give you one of the default pages, unless you own your own webspace or server, you will never be able to chage or add a default page "index.wml, default.wml" so it will never work. You really need to buy your own webspace, try www.4web-space.com - they are really good, and v.cheap with the best customer support I have ever seen. |

How do I include some XML on my wap site - do I save it as an html file?use this header
"?xml version="1.0 ?
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile.dtd"
(excluding the ""'s & including <> in the appropiate places)- or in wml or what - I'm confused as Ive followed step by step instructions from the white paper & it does not work via wap???

Yes, your code is right, but you need to save any wap site as .xml, or .wml, however, only new browsers can see .xml pages, but it should work ok on most phones, to get total coverage, you need to drop xml and any extensible language, as there will never be a time when all phone's support this. You must never save a wap site as anything other than .xml, and .wml
