Please advise. Cellular phones are indeed among target devices of XHTML. "5.1. Framework for Content Negotiation" [1] in "Modularization of XHTML" briefly explains the framework how to cope with various environments, including limited capabilities devices. Composite Capability/Preference Profiles (CC/PP) [2], a W3C Note, is a way to describe the capabilities and preferences on a user side. There is an another W3C Note describing the CC/PP exchange protocol based on the HTTP Extension Framework [3]. W3C is working with the WAP Forum [4] for converging Wireless Markup Language (WML) and XHTML [5,6]. Hopefully, some modules and profiles suitable for mobile devices, such as cellular phones, will be provided. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/profiles.html#sec_5.1.
