WAP, Bluetooth, and 3G Programming: Cracking the Code describes the tools and languages required to develop applications over wireless networks using the wireless application protocol (WAP), Bluetooth, and third-generation networks. Written for experienced application developers, the book demonstrates content development with WML and WML script, outlines push technology in the WAP framework, and shows how to access each layer of the Bluetooth protocol stack. This book brings you complete web application with design specifications, flow diagrams, and source code with line-by-line explanation. You'll build a completely functional web application and make it available to a wide range of devices. Cracking the Code includes coverage of client access from i-mode enabled devices, voice-enabled devices, WAP and HDML devices, and various cross-platform GUIs. The technologies covered include XML, XSLT, cHTML, HDML, XUL (XML-based user interfaces,) and Voice XML. The included CD-ROM contains source code examples, Forte for Java, the Java 2 SDK, the Tomcat server, and Nokia WAP software.
