The Research Of Transparent HTML/WML Conversion

ABSTRACT
Recently, wireless terminal users that want to a gain various information from www have been increased rapidly. Already-existing HTML applications can be converted into WML (Wireless Markup Language) applications for user on WAP (Wireless application Protocol) enabled devices[10], yet this process is not as simple as the alteration of the markup tags. This paper investigates the problems associated with the conversion process by examining the conversion of a functional information system that would be of benefit to its users when access from remote locations is required. This paper derails a number of problems discovered with the conversion of complex HTML[5] documents into simplified WML documents[4]. The major problems of displaying tabulated data, hyperlinks, navigational aids and user input are discussed, and described with possible solutions presented. The paper concludes by raising the issue of ¡¥intelligent¡¦ automated HTML-to-WML conversion, a topic for future research.
