The WICD Mobile profile is primarily designed to enable rich multimedia content on mobile handset devices. These are devices with:
This document contains information, which is specific to the WICD Mobile 1.0 profile. Any information that applies to all WICD profiles, is compiled into the WICD Core 1.0 document. Any information that applies to "Compound Documents" in general, can be found in the documents describing the "Compound Document Framework" (CDR/CDI).

The following is a sample WICD Mobile 1.0 markup:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML Basic 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-basic/xhtml-basic11.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title>Example WICD Mobile content</title> </head> <body> <h1>Example WICD Mobile content<h1> <object type="image/svg+xml" src="child.svg" width="50%" /> </body> </html>
[ XHTML Basic 1.1 W3C Working Draft 5th July 2006 ]
[ assert-root-xhtml-basic: Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support XHTML Basic 1.1 as the root document. ]
[ assert-root-xhtml-mime: XHTML Basic 1.1 documents should be associated with the application/xhtml+xml mime type. ]
[ assert-ecmascript: Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support ECMAScript 3rd Edition Compact Profile (ES-CP) as a scripting language. ]
[ assert-root-css: Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support CSS Mobile Profile 2.0 [CSS Mobile Profile 2.0 Specification] .]
[ assert-svgt: Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support Scalable Vector Graphics Tiny 1.2 [SVGT12] specification. ]
[ assert-bitmap-formats: The viewer must support JPEG/JFIF [JPEG][JFIF] and PNG [PNG] raster image formats. Other image formats may be supported in addition. For JPEG, the subset defined in [SVG12] shall be supported. For PNG, all color types and bit depths shall be supported, gamma correction shall be supported, and any alpha or transparency information shall be used to composite the image onto the background. ]
Audio may be incorporated into WICD 1.0 content in several ways. It may be pointed to from an XHTML object element, or an SVG audio element, or indirectly from an SVG video element where the video includes audio.
[ assert-audio-timing: In XHTML, there are no timing elements. Thus, audio will play from the time the document is loaded until the time the document is unloaded (eg, replaced by another document as a result of following a link). ]
In conforming WICD 1.0 content, audio referenced from an XHTML object element must have width and height of zero.In SVG, audio may be triggered by user interaction or by animations to start, stop, or change volume.
For accessibility, conforming WICD 1.0 user agents should profile the option of switching off audio. [UAAG].
No audio format is mandated in this profile.
[ assert-audio-formats: Any audio format supported by the device must also be supported to be used with the <audio> element in SVG and <object> element in XHTML. ]
Video may be incorporated into WICD 1.0 content in several ways. It may be pointed to from an XHTML object element, or an SVG video element.
[ assert-video-timing: In XHTML, there are no timing elements. Thus, video will play from the time the document is loaded until the time the document is unloaded (eg, replaced by another document as a result of following a link). ]
In SVG, video may be triggered by user interaction or by animations to start, pause, rewind, or stop.
For accessibility, conforming WICD 1.0 user agents must provide the option of pausing, rewinding, or stopping video.
No video format is mandated in this profile.
[ assert-video-formats: Any video format supported by the device must also be supported to be used with the <video> element in SVG and <object> element in XHTML. ]
[ assert-identification: When declaring support for WICD Mobile 1.0, a conforming user agent should use an "Accept" header with the value:
application/xhtml+xml; profile="http://www.w3.org/2005/12/wicd-mobile"
[ assert-dom-level3: Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification and Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Events Specification . ]
The terms used in this document are specified in Compound Document by Reference Framework 1.0 .
This specification defines conformance for several classes of products:
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "may", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 (see http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt). However, for readability, these words do not appear in all uppercase letters in this specification.
At times, this specification recommends good practice for authors and user agents. These recommendations are not normative and conformance with this specification does not depend on their realization. These recommendations contain the expression "We recommend ...", "This specification recommends ...", or some similar wording.
WICD Mobile 1.0 User Agent Conformance:
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must implement the "Compound Document by Reference Framework 1.0 (CDR 1.0)" including the extended DOM API's and additional Events.
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must implement "WICD Core 1.0".
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support XHTML Basic 1.1 as the root document.
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support ECMAScript 3rd Edition Compact Profile (ES-CP) as a scripting language.
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support the updated version of CSS Mobile Profile 2.0.
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Tiny 1.2 Specification while referenced from XHTML.
The viewer must support JPEG/JFIF [JPEG][JFIF] and PNG [PNG] raster image formats. Other image formats may be supported in addition. For JPEG, the subset defined in [SVG12] shall be supported. For PNG, all color types and bit depths shall be supported, gamma correction shall be supported, and any alpha or transparency information shall be used to composite the image onto the background.
In XHTML, there are no timing elements. Thus, audio will play from the time the document is loaded until the time the document is unloaded (eg, replaced by another document as a result of following a link).
Any audio format supported by the device must also be supported to be used with the <audio> element in SVG and <object> element in XHTML.

Any video format supported by the device must also be supported to be used with the <video> element in SVG and <object> element in XHTML.
When declaring support for WICD Mobile 1.0, a conforming user agent should use an "Accept" header with the value: application/xhtml+xml; profile="http://www.w3.org/2005/12/wicd-mobile".
Conformant WICD Mobile 1.0 user agents must support Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification and Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Events Specification.
