Open wave system (i.e. phone.com) will develop a chipset, which comes with micro browser, this will be integrated with the mobile device, and so that mobile device can interact with web server. The major companies like NOKIA, ERICSON has got their own manufacturing unit for developing chipset. The following considerations have to be taken for mobile wave application. 1. Mobile device supports very less user interface. This will be around four lines or 20 characters. 2. Mobile device supports very less memory storage, it will be in KB. 3. There are no consistent markup languages. i.e. no standardization. The different markup languages are a. CHTMLCompact HTML b. XHTMLExtended HTML
c. HTNL 3.2 d. WMLWireless Markup Language 4. The Scripting language supported is Jscript and WML script. 5. Mobile device will support very less band width, it will be between 9-10 KBPS With .Net framework, Microsoft has provided a package for mobile application, this is called as MMIT (Microsoft Mobile Internet Toolkit). This will be reduced the burden from developer, by generating markup language code for micro browser. The developer has to take care of controls programming with vb. Net or C#. Net.
A mobile web page will take the extension. Aspx. Internally it will be considered as a class, which inherits mobile page class. . Net framework 1.0 does not come with MMIT. . Net framework 1.1 comes with MMIT. After designing mobile web page, execute with the particular mobile emulator. So the displaying will be taken on the mobile device. So that proper designing can be taken. The emulator can be free downloaded from the manufacturing company sites like, 1. www.forum.nokia.com 2. www.ericson.com 3. www.openwaves.com
