Please can anyone advise on how to use PHP to print an image for WAP.
No other forums have been able to help. Not sure if it's an XML thing
or a WAP server push thing or something else.

I can get print to work with .jpgs on a www. page or through a mobile
phone browser (transitional doctype) :

<h4>Picture of the day:</h4>
<?php
$image_path = "../images/mobile";
$images =
array('image_sun.jpg','image_mon.jpg','image_tue.jpg','image_wed.jpg','image_thu.jpg','image_fri.jpg','image_sat.jpg');
$day_of_week = date("w");
print("<img src=\"$image_path/$images[$day_of_week]\" alt=\"pic of the
day\" />");
?>

The following does not work (all other aspects apart from the images
work):

<?php
// send wml headers
header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");
echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>";
echo "<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC \"-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN\""
. " \"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml\">";
?>
<wml>
<card title="....." id="tuesday">
<?php
// printing picture of the week with an array
$image_path = "../images/mobile";
$images =
array('sunday.wbmp','monday.wbmp','tuesday.wbmp','wednesday.wbmp','thursday.wbmp','friday.wbmp','saturday.wbmp');
$day_of_week = date("w");
print("<img src=\"$image_path/$images[$day_of_week]\" alt=\"day of the
week\" />");
?>
</p>
.......
<a href="wap.php">Back: Home</a></p>
</card>
</wml>

thanks!
