Creating AvantGo Graphics With PHP

Submitted by andy on Sat, 10/27/2007 - 20:04.

This article was written for Wired PublicationsWebmonkey. Not quite accurately titled, the tutorial shows how PHP can be used to sniff out the color depth of the device requesting an AvantGo page. Using this information, PHP can then be used to send a corresponding image to the browser; so an AvantGo user with a Palm III would get a 2-bit image with black, white, and two shades of grey, wheras an AvantGo user with a Handspring Visor Prism would get a 16-it, 65000+ color image.
