Apache Mobile Filter

I have published the last version of "Apache Mobile Filter".

The Apache Mobile Filter allows you to access WURFL from any programming
language, not just Java and php that is traditionally used for dynamic
mobile web sites.

The module detects the mobile device and passes the WURFL capabilities on to
the other web application as environment variables. It can also be used to
resize images on the fly to adapt to the screen size of the mobile device.

Try it and let me know your opinion.  Do you think could be an intersting
mobile solution for the Apache Software Foundation

For download the package:
http://search.cpan.org/~ifuschini/Apache2-WURFLFilter-2.03/

Idel,

Please cc the mod_perl list on all responses.  Unfortunately, I don't always
have the time to reply to individual messages, and rely on the wisdom of
others on the list to help provide support and respond to questions.

What I was asking for with regards to more documentation, was plain old
documentation (POD, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_Old_Documentation)

Something like:

=head2 SYNOPSIS

In your httpd.conf:

    PerlLoadModule MyModule

    <Location />
        SetHandler modperl
        PerlResponseHandler MyModule
   </Location>
=cut

I can't speak for everyone on the list, but I think you'll have a hard time
selling people on your module unless you have some basic documentation in
the POD showing how to use it.  Presentations and pdfs are excellent
supplements, but personally I am not inclined to use a module unless it has
some bare bones documentation in it, or I know the author's work.

Thanks :)  I am currently looking into a solution to do dynamic image
resizing for mobile devices, so this is interesting to me.

Can you provide some more documentation in the pod for the module so that I
can see how to use it?

Particularly this module:

http://search.cpan.org/~ifuschini/Apache2-WURFLFilter-2.03/lib/Apache2/ImageRenderFilter.pm

A snippet that I could add to my httpd.conf would be ideal.

Fred,
You have right, and thanks for the reporting. I just did a cut and paste
from a  my post on linkedin. So I try to re-send my question:

"I have published the last version of "Apache Mobile Filter".

The Apache Mobile Filter allows you to access WURFL from any programming
language, not just Java and php that is traditionally used for dynamic
mobile web sites.

The module detects the mobile device and passes the WURFL capabilities on to
the other web application as environment variables. It can also be used to
resize images on the fly to adapt to the screen size of the mobile device.

Try it and let me know your opinion.  Do you think could be an intersting
mobile solution for the Apache Software Foundation

For download the package:

For more info: http://www.idelfuschini.it/it/apache-mobile-filter-v2x.html
Demo link: http://apachemobilefilter.nogoogle.it/php_test.php"

Sorry again for the mistake.

Looks interesting, but for future reference, when posting links to the
list, you might want to consider sending your email in plain text
rather than html:

http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html#Post_in_PLAIN_TEXT

Also, I think people are generally more accepting of links that are
openly using a known redirect tracker such as bit.ly, rather than
embedding a hidden redirect link using html as you did here [1].

Your email will probably get out to more people on the list, as some
email clients will identify this technique and mark it as spam or a
phishing message.  Having been the victim of a CRSF attack that used
this method, it tends to stand out as a red flag in my view when I
recognize it (but that's just me, I don't speak for the list in
general).
