Claims12
A system for wireless communication of data between a WEB server and a device using a wireless application protocol, comprising a converter for inline conversion of data in a first format as output from the WEB server into a second format to be received by the device or for conversion of data in the second format into data in the first format.
A system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the first format is an XML compliant format and wherein the second format is a WAP compliant format.
A system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the first format is HTML and wherein the second format is WML.
A system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the system is adapted to support the http and the SSL connections.
A system according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the system is implemented in a computer system by means of Java.
A method for conversion of data in a first format as output from a WEB server into a second format to be received by a device using a wireless application protocol said method comprising the steps of inline:
- reading from the device a request for data from a WEB server address,
- converting the request from a first data format to a second data format,
- forwarding the converted request to the WEB server,
- receiving data from the WEB server address,
- converting the data from the second data format to the first data format,
- forwarding the data to the device.
