Summary
If someone were to visit your Website via a cell phone, would they be able to view the site correctly? What if they were using a Palm Pilot to see your page, or some other kind of high tech gadget? The wireless Web is growing quickly, and content developers need to know how to create solutions that address the variety of screen sizes, transfer speeds, and the various demands of individual mobile Web users. In The Wireless Web Usability Handbook, readers learn how to develop content that is truly usable on all wireless devices.

Library Journal Review
Wireless designers face the challenge of achieving their vision in the limited environment offered by devices like cell phones and PDAs. Recommended for all public libraries, Usability Handbook modifies advice found in web usability guides (see Computer Media, LJ 5/1/02) for the wireless environment, focusing on how wireless devices work and how best to design for them. Chapter summaries and discussion questions aid understanding; the CD-ROM includes WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) emulators and templates. Larger public libraries can consider the next two guides: for beginning wireless developers, WAP 2.0 discusses developing with WAP, then moves on to more advanced topics such as WMLScript, ASP, and connecting to databases. For more advanced developers, Wireless Java teaches wireless application development through step-by-step examples. The CD-ROM contains sample code. (c) Copyright 2010.
