The number of mobile phone users that can access the web from their phone is increasing quickly,as is the number of people who actually do use their phones to access the web.
There are more people worldwide who connect to the internet from mobiles than personal computers(PC’s) in a couple of years.Browsing the internet from mobile phones is finally taking off.The latest batch of phones have helped the cause considerably.
What does that mean for us who design and develop sites and applications to serve up imaginative and useful content to their phones is tremendous.
To develop successful content,you need to understand the technical limitations of mobile browser.The diversity of hardware that is out there,and the practical difficulties and frustrations faced by users trying to navigate from a phone keypad.
If you want to reach a broad audience, then your pages need to work on the tiny monochrome screen.
There are two markup languages can help you to design your pages for mobiles as well as pc’s
WML and XHTML

XHTML-extensible hypertext markup language
