I searched for a solution to this, but couldn't find one. After I
figured out a workaround, I figured I'd post it.
We needed to be able to view WML pages in IE without a second
application. IE asks you to download them. I couldn't find a plug-in
anywhere.
The fix (or hack) is this:
Edit the registry and create (or edit) the
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\text/vnd.wap.wml
entry to matched exactly the entry for text/html. On my WinXP box, it
looks like this:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\text/vnd.wap.wml]
"Extension"=".html"
"CLSID"="{25336920-03F9-11cf-8FD0-00AA00686F13}"
"Encoding"=hex:08,00,00,00
With this, IE will "think" any WML page is HTML, which works very well
(although not perfectly).
Caution: Hacking the registry can cause serious problems to your
machine if you do something wrong.
