If you detect the browser details, you should be able to work out the phone being used, and from there, determine whether or not the phone has a colour screen, right? I'm no expert so I hope this helps! This message was posted from a Nokia

@ovisopa:

if someone access your WAP page, make your program save this HTTP HEADER:

HTTP_PROFILE

It contains a link to XML file with full specifications of the mobile device (screen/height/width etc)... For example

T68i (R8A):
HTTP_PROFILE:http://wap.sonyericsson.com/UAprof/T68R502.xml

T610 (R1L):
HTTP_PROFILE:http://wap.sonyericsson.com/UAprof/T610R101.xml

NOKIA 6100:
HTTP_PROFILE:http://nds.nokia.com/uaprof/N6100r100.xml

Open these .XML pages and take a look. If you can retrieve them during the HEADERS exchange, you may decide what to do further.

Hope this helped a bit.

Yes

I think it's identical to all mobile phones ( ) I checked for nokia an ericsson and it's ok.

Hi there,
Please try this. The code is in ASP/VBScript
<%

If InStr(1,lcase(Request.ServerVariables("http_accept")),"image/jpg") Then

    Response.Write "Jpg Supported"

Else

    Response.Write "Jpg not Supported"

End If

%>
One more thing. It is note necessary that a phone supporting JPG should be
color. It can be a b/w model.
