Mobility Microsoft FrontPage Addons, Mobile WML Converter. Converts static html files to WML format

Mobile WML Converter

Description: The Mobile WML Converter Add-in for FrontPage can jumpstart your development of a WML (Wireless Markup Language) site by converting existing HTML (HyperText Markup Language) files created for a static Web site to WML format. The WML protocol is specifically designed for browsing by wireless mobile devices such as wireless phones. The WML Converter Add-in recursively searches through the folders of the HTML Web site you specify when you run the tool, reading the contents and hyperlinks contained in the site’s HTML files (files with .htm or html extensions, opened in FrontPage). The conversion tool then creates WML card files from the contents and hyperlinks discovered during the search, and stores the converted files in the destination directory that you enter.The WML Converter add-in does not modify your HTML source files.

Installation Instructions - You can install the Mobile WML Converter Add-in by launching the Setup.exe executable available from the FrontPage Add-in download site. To install the Mobile WML Converter Add-in 1. Launch the Mobile WML Converter Add-in Setup file.

User Instructions - 1. Start up FrontPage 2002, and use Open Web command under the File menu to open an existing HTML Web site that you wish to convert. Conversion will not affect this Web site. 2. Under the Tools menu for FrontPage, choose Mobile WML Converter. 3. A dialog box displays enabling you to choose the destination folder for the generated WML deck. If the destination folder you entered already exists, then a dialog box displays asking you to confirm that the Add-in may overwrite the existing files. 4. On the Mobile WML Converter dialog box, you will see HTML files loaded as conversion takes place. After conversion is complete, an explorer window will open for the folder containing the generated WML deck. FrontPage will automatically load the default WML card for view and edit. More details are in the included readme document. The Converter does not support dynamic pages or server-side scripting (files with extensions such as .asp, .aspx, .shtml).
