You need to setup the MIME type, look below:



Configuring MIME types



Table 1. MIME Types for WAP

Extension MIME Type Description
.wml text/vnd.wap.wml WML source
.wmls text/vnd.wap.wmlscript WMLScript source
.wbmp image/vnd.wap.wbmp Wireless Bitmap

In table 1, the mime types for serving WML content to your wireless device:
WML
(wireless markup language) .WMLS (WML SCRIPT), and WBMP to display Wireless
Bitmap images.

Table 2. MIME Types for Pre-Compiled WAP (optional)
.wmlc application/vnd.wap.wmlc Compiled WML binary
.wmlsc application/vnd.wap.wmlscriptc Compiled WMLScript binary


In table 2, the WMLC gives your web server the ability to display WML in
compiled
binary format. This reduces the overhead and latency to the device. And you
will be able
to take advantage of content compression from the NES with this option in
your web
server.
Apache:
· First locate where the apache software is installed on your computer.
Should this
be a UNIX platform, then check /etc/httpd/conf/mime.typs or
/usr/local/httpd/conf/mime.types . If not any of these locations, contact
system
administrator for further assistances.



Configuring MIME types

· Edit "mime.types" file using "VI" or any of your favorite editors. This
will open
up the mime type configuration file. In the configuration file you will need
to
input the mime types information as followed:
· The most simplest way to configure apache with the appropriate mime types,
just
copy and paste the content
o Compiled WML
§ application/vnd.wap.wmlc wmlc
o WML Scripting
§ application/vnd.wap.wmlscriptc wmlsc
o WML Content
§ text/vnd.wap.wml wml
o Text Interpretation of WML Script
§ text/vnd.wap.wmlscript wmls
o Wireless Bitmap Image
§ image/vnd.wap.wbmp wbmp
IIS:
· Right-click the desired directory (for instance "Default Web Site") and
select
Properties. You'll see a tabbed Default Web Site Properties dialog box.
· Select the HTTP Headers tab, and click File Types.
· In the File Types dialog, click New Type.
· Input the Extension and MIME type from Table 1, first line.
· You don't need to worry about the period in front of the extension-whether
you
type it or not, IIS will set it correctly. However, be very careful in your
spelling of
the MIME type. A small typo here will give you strange errors on your WAP
phone that can be very difficult to debug.
· Repeat for each MIME type.
· When you've finished, click OK and OK again to save your changes and close
the
Internet Service Manager. If prompted to "Save console settings to iis.msc?"
click
Yes.
