Hi Alex,

I have no plans to support WML in any form as there is already a wmlbrowser addon: http://wmlbrowser.mozdev.org/

Cheers,

Gareth

Will you ever add support for compiled WML files uin XHTML-MP?
Some WAP sites generate compiled WML pages (example below - Emacs
format)?

When decompiled using "wmld" from the "wml-tools" package, the following
WML code is output, which can then be fed back into a Gecko-based
browser by dragging the output file into the browser window: -

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">

<wml>
  <head/>
  <card id="index" title="Success">

The only problem is that XHTML-MP doesn't recognise the compiled WML,
which triggers the browser's "view or save" dialog. So then you have to
download the file, decompile it, then load it back in the browser (which
isn't possible if viewing the page required a session cookie).

Decompilation of WMLC on the fly would save a lot of time...
