The Multimodal Toolkit adds extensions to Rational Application Developer to provide multimodal functionality, allowing the development of applications with both visual and voice user interfaces. The Toolkit provides an integrated development environment that can minimize both the skills and time needed to develop applications for XHTML+Voice aware PDAs and other handheld wireless devices.
XHTML+Voice (X+V) is a Web markup language for developing multimodal applications for wireless devices. X+V uses both voice and visual elements of user interaction.
In 2001 the mobile phone industry chose SVG as the basis for its graphics platform. Many leading companies joined the SVG effort to produce the SVG Tiny and SVG Basic profiles, collectively called SVG Mobile and targetted at resource-limited devices such as mobile handsets and PDAs.
The SVG Mobile specification was adopted by 3GPP as the required graphics format for next-generation phones and multimedia messaging (MMS). Already there are SVG-enabled handsets shipping worldwide.
SVG Mobile is primarily used for messaging in applications such as
Looking to help high-end handheld gadgets better adapt to the way video games and other graphics-oriented software are displayed, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Tuesday recommended Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.1 and Mobile SVG profiles be anointed standards.
SVG is an open file format that enables two-dimensional images to be displayed in XML pages on the Web. SVG enables the viewing of an image on a computer display of any size and resolution. SVG also allows text within images to be recognized as such, so that the text can be located by a
Although it’s not yet proved without doubt that W3C validation gives you better search engine rankings, it’s sure that errors in your code can cause you big problems. Converting your website pages to XHTML will help you reach more customers, as your site will work better in more browsers and non-traditional devices.
The W3C is the World Wide Web Consortium and provides guidelines based on best practice, regarding how websites and web pages should be structured and created for long–term durability. The W3C validation is just a standard for
