gnawz Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Hello? Is is possible to simulate or develop PHP fro mobile devices like phones.. I guess it is. Anyone with resources on this. I want to make an upload/download interface and script for a mobile device Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/151164-php-and-mobile/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubc07 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 JavaScript would be the way to go with this. Since just about all phones now days have java systems. You could develop a java interface to hit a html server with php as the side.

You could develop a java interface to hit a html server with php as the side. Java and Javascript are two completely different things that are in no way related.

dubc07 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 understandably Java and Javascript are two different things, HOWEVER they can both interact with each other. SO basically what i was trying to say, is that since most mobile phones nowadays have JAVA!!!!! you could develop an interface that would access a HTML SERVER (Where all your accessible files would be kept ) SO FORTH AND SO ON!!!

There's a lot of languages that interact with each other. you could develop an interface that would access a HTML SERVER (Where all your accessible files would be kept ) Still not quite sure what you mean by HTML server? A browser renders your pages into HTML when they are displayed on the page, whether you use Javascript, JSP, ASP, PHP, etc. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/151164-php-and-mobile/#findComment-795118 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverado_NL Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Is is possible to simulate or develop PHP fro mobile devices like phones.. why would you do that? php is a server-sides language, so unless u want your phone to act as a server u dont do php magic on it:P instead u could make a php website on a server, and make sure that whatever it outputs(usually html) is supported by the Mobile phones. this usually comes down to supporting the small screen resolution with special CSS sheet for this type's of user agents.

Then access a page on your server using your browser. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/151164-php-and-mobile/#findComment-795744 Share on other sites More sharing options...
redarrow Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 you need to use wap and php together to do what you want. php and mysql will hold the information and wap will design the web site. http://www.w3schools.com/wap/wap_intro.asp if you need to send sms your need a gateway to do that and buy text per bundle.

gnawz Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 Makes sense guys, thanks. I have embarked on it. I need to do the design in a platform independent way. How about PHP code or code in any language that can read SIM card details (Contacts)?
