Is it worth it to develop WAP webpage for cellular since now cellular have browser that is really better than before?
I have a PHP website and I would like to increase the use of portable device to use it. Is it worth it to implement.
回答1:
Frankly, no. I've written WAP pages (it's painful), I've never seen a person use a WAP browser, and for the 4.25 people in the world who do, there are WAP Gateways.
Unless your site is geared towards providing WAP friendly content (e.g. bitesize) that people will reload regularly, it's probably more cost effective to provide a static page with a phone number users can call so that you'll read them the content they want, than spend any time on WAP.

It depends what devices you're targeting. If you want to have the broadest possible range of devices accessing your site, then you would do well to tailor specifically to different device capabilities and some of those devices will only support WAP. However, if you only want to target higher-end, more modern devices (nokia smartphones, iPhone, G1, etc) then you can build a "traditional" HTML/CSS site and it will render just fine.
