Yeah I also fail to see the php-db on-topic-ness of the original post,
but nevertheless, it's early in the morning, here's my tuppence worth...
All you need to do is configure Apache to make PHP process all .wml
files, and then change the header at the top of all your WML files to
header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");
Looky here

And you can also use http://xml.apache.org/cocoon2/index.html which
you
can
program to transcode anything to anything you want or you can just get
yourself a transcoder from www.aethersystems.com which uses Scout Web or
Clearigo www.clearigo.com and then you have www.wap-shareware.com and
use
this with your web server

php-db ?! I can't even figure out what the link is...
but to answer your question, as long as your page is mostly text (images
and wap
doesn't really click) it's the end-user and not the developer who has to
bother
with it.
Most WAP-serviceproviders provide their clients with http-gateways, and
if
not
there are some free ones aswell that proxy user-requests and translate
the
http content to wml on the fly.
