I still couldn't get into a page, but it doesn't matter - I think I see the problem. According to dot-mobi: "For XHTML-MP, the recommended MIME type is application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml or application/xhtml+xml. Unlike HTML, XHTML-MP should not be served as text/html." Consequently the mobile site I maintain at: http://m.unimelb.edu.au also generates a warning. On the other hand, I get the feeling it's pretty much an 'edge case' as far as failure goes. Serving as text/html isn't going to break many browsers. I suspect only most primitive wap only browsers will fail to load the content. If you look at dot-mobi's little graph, it indicates that such browsers are likely to be on mobiles greater than 5 years old - pretty minor stuff given that, if you're anything like our site, more than 95% of your mobile traffic is going to be from Apple devices. However, there's nothing wrong with being fussy, so getting you server to use the correct MIME type will require you either getting into the apache.conf file or using .htaccess to set the mime type for the file extensions you're using. This can get tricky and will break things if you don't know what you're doing. (I don't!) In my case - using the MySource Matrix CMS, it's just a matter of adding a line to the beginning of my mobile template, if you are running a CMS you may have a similar setting. I'm going to leave that until Monday when I've got time to back out of it if it causes problems :-) -- Andrew Harris and...@woowoowoo.com http://www.woowoowoo.com ~~~ <*))))>< ~~~ ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
