Hello!

PROBLEM
I keep getting an error message when I try to check if the installation is OK.? I am running Joomla v 1.0.8 and
I used the WapTiger Emulator located at,
http://www.waptiger.com/waptiger/

"ERROR:? wrong content type text/html"

This is an example of how I placed the code in the "index.php"

Code:

// A file to redirect users based on their browsers.
$htmlredirect = "http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla"; //your main mambo site address
$wmlredirect = "http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla/wap/wap/menu.php";? //your wap site address
$wml2redirect = "http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla/wap/wap2/menu.php";? //your wap site address

QUESTION
How can the weather be changed to show weather in a United States city?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

This maybe somthing to do with the WapTiger Emulator sending out the wrong browser type.

have you tried ccWAP click start the browser, click options, them click GoTo URL and enter the URL to your index file.

I know that ccWAP sends the right browser type, TagTag doese as well.

If all else fails post your link and I'll try it on my mobile.

Hope this sorts your problem out

Hello!

Thank you for your response.

ONLINE WAP EMULATOR FOLLOW-UP

• The ccWAP Emulator located at http://ccwap.com does not appear to be working although the web site is up.
• The TagTag Emulator is working.? It is located at http://tagtag.com/site/index.php3 at the bottom of the page.

WHAT HAPPENED
I had to point the browser to the following address to see the WAP page
http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla/wap
The address http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla did not work.

QUESTIONS
- 1 - If that address does not work on a phone will it automatically go to
http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla/wap/wap2/

- 2 - Is it possible to remove the second web site title?? For example, the WAP display looks something like this,

-- Test Site -- Test Site Menu News Other News Forum Posts Weather Contact 2089 WebVisitors

Would it be possible to remove the second "Test Site"?

- 3 - Can the number of web site visitors also be removed?

REQUEST
Instructions as to how to get the code to pull in weather for cities in the United States.

Thanks again in advance for your response.

I had to point the browser to the following address to see the WAP page
http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla/wap
The address http://www.mywebsite.z88.us/joomla did not work.

Thats the way it should work, what I used to do was have a sub directory like http://wap.mywebsite.z88.us/ where I placed all the wap files then wap user just went there, but if they accessed it via IE or Firefox it took them to your main site.

I did not program wap redirection into the main Joomla site because every time there was an up-date you would have to edit the Joomla index.php file every time.

So here is basicly how it should work:

• You upload your files to your wap directory.
• To view your WAP site you point your WAP device to your WAP directory.
• The older WAP devices get pointed automaticly to /wap/wap/
• The newer WAP devices get pointed automaticly to /wap/wap2/
• Normal web browsers automaticly get pointed to your main site

CCwap, try going to http://217.115.141.136:8002/ there you have a selection of wap devices, tried them just now and all seem to work ok. they work on the older version of wap so will only get pointed to /wap/wap/.

Depending on type of browser, the first title (-- Test Site --) is the page tilte, the same as you see on your browsers top bar, on a real wap device this does not show, the second instance of it is the page title that is displayed, which is the name of your site. WAP emulators just display both titles. What I did was replace this second one with an image (wbmp).

As for the weather, I'll have to look into that one I can't remember how I got the code to change that.

Hi!

Thank you for such an extensive explanation.

If you have a copy/backup of the forums that were on Media Finder you will find the explanation of how to change the weather.? I had bookmarked it, but when Media Finder stopped I could no longer locate it.?

NOTE:? I am having a problem with another site I do not want to post about here.? I am going to PM you.

Other problems like internal server errors can be solved by changing the last few lines of index.php with this

Code:

{
//header("302 Moved Temporarily");
header("Location: ".$wml2redirect);
exit;
}
elseif($br == "WAP")
{
//header("302 Moved Temporarily");
header("Location: ".$wmlredirect);
exit;
}
else
{
//header("302 Moved Temporarily");
header("Location: ".$htmlredirect);
exit;
}

File does not want to download system kicks me out, is this still a valid download for Joomla? Could not find it on the extensions area of Joomla and got here via the forums. Let me know , would like to give this a try.

[Tony]

If you noticed in the first post where the download is (http://forums.budgethosting4u.com/index.php?topic=5.msg6#msg6 ) this joomla add on used to be hosted on the Media Finder website. It was added to the Joomla Extensions section by Joomla staff but I think it was removed when Media Finder had ended so I put the file up for download here. I have checked the download in Firefox and IE and had no problems downloading the file.

Make sure that you are logged in when you download the file, check your browser settings for downloads too.

If your still having problems, PM me with your email address and I'll email it to you.

I have problem with wap4joomla 1.5.

I managed to set up the config and redirection, and I thought it would work perfectly... and it did, for some time:(. Seems to me that wap4joomla doesn't handle pages with images on it very well.
When I try to access the article from joomla wichh contains images, it takes UP to 85-95% of server usage??? And if I continue to browse my wap site I eventually get server so busy that I can't do anything else. I've tried it with php4+mySQL4, php5+mySQL5, and  other combintation. I even tried it in local (XAMPP 1.5a)... same thing.

Does anybody had similiar problem, or is it just me:(?

Thanx in advance

WAP4Joomla! doesn't display images if they are entered in to your page context correctly using the {MosImage} tag, what might cause a problem is if you have linked to an image using html. Even then it should just display the image URL, this is the first time this has been reported and I don't think you problem is related to the script as all it does is query your database for the text in the content field for that story.

First, I want to thank you for a quick reply. And second, you're right. There seems to be a problem with the users link images in joomla content, or with the content itself. I install plain joomla with demo content, and it works super. So... Now I have to determine where in the content is problem

Thanx

Hi, it is me again

What about tables? Does Wap4Joomla can handle tables? After done some testing, a found out that server is going to 99% cpu usage, when I have this in my content:

- tables
- bold {mosimage} tag - don't ask
- links <a href

Is there a solution for this other than "don't put tables in front page:)).

Is there a solution for this other than "don't put tables in front page:)).

Because of the nature of WML and how fussy it is about incorrect code all tags are striped from the content except the allowed tags, some are corrected if they are in the wrong format.

eg.
WML does not allow the tag <strong> so the script changes it to <b>  that is allowed, also <B> is not allowed so this will be changed and so on .

The only way I could see this causing a problem with a server is if you have a very large content for it to process.

As I have said before, I have never experienced high CPU usage in running this scrip neither has it been reported before so I'm at a loss to suggest a solution, sorry.

Hello Tony, I think that that bug happens when caracters exceeds limit of 160.
No images, no other code, just limit.

If any way to make divide the content in more than 1 card (wml) ?
If that is posible, will be great! (I didn't find it in Google)

thanks!
