Perl

Perl uses Content-Type to specify content MIME type. To specify the MIME type for a WAP card, the following syntax is used:

print "Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml \n\n";

Listing E.4 is the Perl code used to create the output seen in Figure E.1.

Listing E.4 hello.pl—Perl WML Welcome Card
print "Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml \n\n";

print <<"EOF";

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.2//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml12.dtd">

<wml>
   <card title="Welcome">
      <p>
         WAP is cool!
      </p>
   </card>

</wml>

EOF
