    <?
    $htmlredirect = "Regular Web Page";
    $wmlredirect = "Mobile Web Page";
    if(strpos(strtoupper($HTTP_ACCEPT),"VND.WAP.WML") > 0){
    header("Location: ".$wmlredirect);}
    else{
    header("Location: ".$htmlredirect);
    exit;}

    ?>

    That should work.

    anywhere I usually put it towards the top.
    I tried to test it on my t-mobile dash but it wasnt working. It worked on my t619 though.

    If you have any future problems with wap, I use http://www.2wap.org/forums
    Quite resourceful

    I have found that a lot of mobile redirecting scripts need to be updated constantly and always include Iphones in the redirecting process. If anyone is interested, I've uploaded a PHP script to the following website:

    Go to: http://www.pcmechanix.ca/mobile_redirect.htm

    If you would first like to test the code using a mobile device then input the following url into your mobile browser:

    Good Luck!
