Re: WML/WAP and PHP

Hi Rick, you are not doing anything wrong. You just have to send the proper content-type depending on what you're outputing. For example if you want to produce a gif image you have to use header("Content-type: image/gif"); There's nothing wrong with it as PHP can't predict what you want to do. text/html is set as default simply because it's the type most users in most cases need.
