Here's the info from the Mobile Web Pages class from UTTC - The instructor
was Pat Haggerty.
You'll find a copy of the files we used for class, as well as a copy of the
completed files, at the following address:
https://netfiles.umn.edu/xythoswfs/webui/_xy-9587358_1
The file will be compressed as a .zip file, so you'll have to uncompress it
to locate and use the files. You'll also find a folder called References
that includes the specifications for XHTML Mobile Profile v1.1 and v1.2, as
well as the specifications for WAP CSS v1.0 and v1.1. I've also included a
copy of the W3C's Mobile Web Best Practices v1.0.
The class files include the web page we used to add the Antiscreen
bookmarklet to the browser's bookmark toolbar. The actual origin of this
bookmarklet can be found at the following fantastic article from A List
Apart:
