| PHP and WML? Phone won't accept .php |

msg:931491 | 10:42 pm on Dec 8, 2003 (gmt 0) | I'm messing around with WML, trying to learn how to add a section to my website that can be accessed by a wireless phone. I can make a page with the extension .wml, and my phone will access the page without problems. If I make a .php file that has WML output, my phone will give me an ambiguous error that says "Not Allowed". Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Here's the code I'm using (since it's not too long) <?php header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");?> <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml"> <wml> <card id="Main" title="Test Page"> <p>Hello</p> <?php echo "<p>Goodbye</p>";?> </card> </wml> When I try to load it, my phone just says "Not Acceptable". If I just do a quick .wml page that says the exact same thing, without the PHP, it works fine.

I used a WML Validator, and by looking at the error that resulted, I determined that the php file was trying to execute the <?xml?> tag, thinking that it was PHP script. So I changed that line from <?xml version=\"1.0\"?> <?php echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n";?> And now it works! Thanks for the help, olias ^_^
