WiderWeb Mobile Formally Launched - Enables Phone Browser Access to Complex Web Sites, Greatly Increasing the Range of Web Sites Available for the Mobile Internet

The vast majority of web sites have NOT been written with mobile browsing in mind. The complexity of modern site design coupled with techniques to take advantage of PC based browsers means that a huge amount of content was inaccessible to the mobile user -- UNTIL NOW. WiderWeb Mobile bridges the browsing gap and delivers a 100% increase in overall mobile browsing activity to Mobile Network Operators and Service Providers.

(PRWEB) June 9, 2005 -- WiderWeb Mobile is an Intelligent Web Intermediary, where page requests from a browser are directed through the service. On the fly and throughout a user session WiderWeb Mobile takes page requests and converts results to XHTML/MP compliant pages, maintaining full state and transactional capabilities. It achieves this through our unique Proxy Script Execution engine, executing complex page actions at WiderWeb before passing the simplified and transcoded pages to the client browser. Widerweb Mobile flattens frames, strips CSS, removes script, embeds ALT tags, converts image buttons, replaces client-side image maps, splits large pages, restructures site navigation, simplifies images and handles SSL encryption!

In addition access times are halved due to page size reductions and cross-bearer network support for browser sessions enabled, allowing a user session to cross between networks such as GPRS and W-CDMA. WiderWeb Mobile also provides customisation and custom over-ride facilities for deployments, to change fetching features such as User Agent headers, specify how security is handled by client and per site, change page aspects and to generate customised end of page notices.

WiderWeb Mobile is developed by Moore Innovations Ltd and deployed by service providers to enhance browsing access and so drive increased usage. By making available the vast majority of web sites previously thought unreachable to mid-tier phones - the 'long Tail of mobile browsing - WiderWeb Mobile can double levels of Internet usage from these limited devices.
