RE: WBXML support in Opera

Hi Dom,
WBXML is usable for any XML document type, as long as there is a defined token table. The tokenized form of WML (application/vnd.wap.wmlc) is just one XML document type that is in tokenized form. 

Token tables are usually defined inside specifications and implemented by the client/server products that support tokenization and tokenized content processing/use.

Best regards,

Subject: WBXML support in Opera


Hi David,

Charles took an action item (ACTION-688) a while ago to check whether
Opera supports WBXML, the compression algorithm used in the WML world,
and whether that support is limited to WML itself or can be used more
generally.

Would you be able to look into this in Charles's stead?

(The purpose was to evaluate whether WBXML was something that could be
recommended in the Mobile Web Application Best Practices).

Thanks,

Dom
