Hi
I am just getting back into coding a site for keitai after a while
doing other things.
I am no longer very up to speed on what assumptions I can make about
phones handling of encodings, doctypes, etc.
I need the site to be maximally readable by as many clients as
possible, both Japanese and foreign, with the minimum of fuss, for
very, very simple pages.
For a simple site is there a generic, safe doctype and encoding that
everything can read (for kanji).
Does everything understand utf8 now, or are docomo phones still sjis?
Do most handsets now support cookies?
One google site I saw has this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://
www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-
equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8"/>
Is this likely to be readable by a docomo handset (I just have a
softbank nokia to hand, which isn't terribly useful for testing
compatability with JP phones...)
I am not worried about emoji - I know all that.
Thanks
Nick
