Hi people,

I adapted a page to exhibit the route between two points inputed by user and
the text description of all segments between the points (in Firefox, it exhibit everything... it has a form with to inputs, from and to address, and a button, and, after submit, show a static map and the description of route). And I would like to access it through a browser of my cellular phone (I have a Motorola L7 to test).

Please, does anybody know what may I do to show this map in a wap/mobile browser? May I use WML source code or can I use everything in HTML with the
following DOCTYPE? Take a look:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "
http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">

I've been using the DTD above with HTML source code and it doesn't work. My source code consists of HTML and javascript based on Google Maps API.

Is there some limitation to run Google Maps on wap browsers, even if I use static maps?

Is there a way to identify if the browser is able to exhibit static maps (maybe in browsers of smartphones it works) and choose it in a script? Should be a WML and WMLScript or could HTML with some specific DTD and Javascript?

Thanks in advance!
