Upload File from
WAP Cell Phone
Overview
Many
wireless devices like cell phones can be used as a digital camera or
as a music player. With them, you can take pictures, record video
clips and listen to your favorite MP3 songs at any time and in any
place.
However,
your cell phone may not have enough space to store all your pictures,
video clips, music files, ringtones, etc. To solve this, you can
upload some files to a server through a WAP connection. When you need
them, you can download them back to your cell phone.
For
example, if you are traveling in a beautiful country, you will
definitely take many photos and record many video clips with your
cell phone. You can upload some of the image files and video files to
a server to share with your friends and at the same time make room
for more photos and videos along the journey.
Some
cell phones support both file upload and 3G wireless network. The
upload speed will be very fast if you are using a 3G connection.
How to Upload Files
from WAP Cell Phones
Both
WML (the markup language of WAP 1.x) and XHTML MP (the markup
language of WAP 2.0) do not support file upload. But fortunately the
browser on some WAP 2.0 cell phones support the <input
type="file"> element as an extension of XHTML MP. Some
HTML-capable WAP browsers also support the <input type="file">
element.
The
<input type="file"> element will be rendered as a
button on a WAP browser. When it is clicked, the list of files stored
on the wireless device and the memory card will be displayed. You can
then choose a file to upload to the server.
At
the server-side, you use a server-side technology like ASP / ASP.NET,
ColdFusion, Java Servlet / JSP, Perl and PHP to extract the file from
the HTTP request, just like what you will do to handle HTML file
upload. Then you can process the file or save it to a directory or a
database system.
