Here are 2 links which you can read more about WML and XHTML.

WML
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_Markup_Language

XHTML
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xhtml

I have only briefly done a wap site using wml, and it works exactly like a xml document in the format like:

<title>
<name>darran</name>
</title>

Something like that. WML is designed for low processing mobile sets, in the past the processing power of this mobile were not able to interpret the current http pages which you are seeing at the moment. In the past, from experience there were only wap pages/'light' html pages which could be viewed on the mobile, but now the modern mobile sets are much more powerful in terms of processing power and are able to visit http pages of any sort. WML is going to die out sooner or later because XHTML is replacing it.

I think XHTML would be the better option for you since it is the standard which will be going to use from now on, rather than WML which is a dying standard.

Use WML. WML is used for mobile web-sites which can be accessed through most mobile phones with internet access. XHTML is mostly HTML and not all mobile phones can view it, that is why I said go with WML.

Yes,its true,diffenence in XHTML is that code u wrote down is displayed on page as exe file and there so isnt possible to see source code.Also,XHTML cant have unclosed orders otherwise it wont function properly.

You do know that WML is quickly dying out. With newer phones comes better processing abilities, and that is why even now, on my phone (SE K800i), it is able to view Trap17 as it is. I hardly see anyone using wml, at least around me and it is better to keep to 1 standard rather than have many standards, wml-xhtml-html ... etc, furthermore xhtml is just like html with extensions, so it is easier for programmers to code in xhtml rather than spend sometime to learn wml, though it is easy. It is an unnecessary waste of time.

go for xhtml, wml will die soon and those who at this point cant afford a xhtml browser compatible phone wont activate gprs on there phone too.
also you can do many functions in xhtml than wml

    What were making In this tutorial, we will be creating a web page that can be used for a gallery, an

    1.0 Strict and CSS3 valid, our CSS won't even have any warnings on them apart from one. So the
    first thing we need to do is set up a base structure for the XHTML. Below is the code for this.

    Right now I have a site, which I've made XHTML 1.0 Strict. I am sending it as

    browsers. Anyway, I started thinking that I'd much rather send proper HTML 4.01 to browsers that
    don't understand XHTML instead of XHTML pretending to be HTML 4.01. It's not really a
    problem with IE, because it is made to handle badly written sites, but who knows, some browser that
    can handle HTML, but not XHTML, may be (correctly) parsing CODE <p> Hello <br />

  10. Encoding And Xhtml Requirements - (2)
    OK, so after reading a lot of contradicting information I decided to ask. How should document

    suggests the server should send the encoding in the content-type header. The problem with this that
    I see is that you can't always make a blanket judgment about what encoding pages will be in. Is
    it simply suggested to use .htaccess files (or equivalent) for this, then? I am led to believe that
    most (all?) browsers will ignore a content-type meta tag. Is there another in-file o...

    when it comes finally to the design of a form, instead of having two rows (left row with the label
    and right row with the input tag) and those rows aligned to look nice (left row= right aligned and
    right row=left aligned), how can we keep order with our fancy style sheet? Thanks in advance....

    Can you set up the document type definition in order to create your own tags in XHTML? (Just as it

    its even more useful the fact that a language (like HTML) already strongly accepted, has its own
    structures defined. Its just sometimes you need to add a little adjustment here and there. So i
    ask if theres a way to define this in XHTML, your structures of tags and attributes and all that. I
