Mobile applications

Accessing mobile applications in connected mode

You can access mobile applications any time using your Smartphone, PDA, or BlackBerry device. The URL for accessing mobile applications is:

http://machine.domain/onepage/mp.jsp

For example, if the name of the machine where Unwired Accelerator is installed is named “ua,” and your domain is “sybase.com,” enter:

http://ua.sybase.com/onepage/mp.jsp

Users are grouped under resources. Each resource corresponds to an Unwired Accelerator co-brand. The index JSP (mpindex.jsp) accesses resource ID (RID) rid=21 from desktop browsers such as Internet Explorer. For more information about resource IDs, see Chapter 14, “Creating Co-brands” in the Enterprise Portal Developer’s Guide.

In the Welcome window, enter your mobile portal user name and password. The next window (the home page) displays the navigation tree with mobile applications displayed as links. The navigation tree shows the names of the page groups, pages, and applications. Only those page groups that support the navigation style of the requesting device are listed in the home page. See “Navigation styles”. To see the content of an application, click the appropriate link in the home page.

Running applications in disconnected mode

You can run applications in disconnected (offline) mode with the   Anywhere Client 5.5 for Symbian P900, PocketPC, and Palm devices. Install the M-Business Anywhere Client browser, and configure the server for sync operations. See your M-Business Anywhere documentation for instructions.

NoteThe only types of disconnected mode applications that you can use on the P900 are spidered Web based applications.
