java app

spent couple hours going back and forth with Bryan Ito last night and met with him today. he brought his laptop because he was able to connect his i355 to his laptop. I brought mine and tried to connect his phone. It wouldn't work, at least, we can conclude the the problem isn't the phone being java enabled ,not the data cable, not the software. We double ckecked that we had the same versions for iden Java application loader and motorolla usb drivers. We are now guessing that it is a problem with vista since my laptop runs on Vista Business and his runs on xp2000. The java application loaded to my phone using his system and I am having an error in the class. I will trouble shoot this later this weekend . I am also going to try to load the iden jal and the usb drivers on my friends laptop whois running on xp2000 . this will let us know for sure if it is Vista.

note: on the motodev site this driver we are using is suppose to have been upgraded for the sole purpose of interfacing with Vista.

Here's what I did:

1)Downloaded the USB drivers from the following site because the data cable I bought uses USB connection.

http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/USB_Drivers/Handset_USB_Driver/

2)Downloaded iDen java application loader. When I use this and click "connect to phone" I get a pop-up error stating "Invalid com port selected" But when I go to preferences theedit box for Com Port doesn't accept any values and when I check connect via USB I get a pop-up error stating I have the wrong version of windows to use USB, but I’m running Windows Vista Business 32-bit.

3) Checked my device manager to make sure phone was connected to laptop. It is listed under Modems.

4) Downloaded Midway from http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/othertools/

And when I run this I get failed but the first time I ran the app I got time expired

5) found this site with info regarding time expired using Midway

6) Downloaded UID Extraction Tool v2.2 to enable JAL from

http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/othertools/UID22/

And when I run it the bottom left shows no device connected.

7) I sent this information to Bryan Ito.

PHP mail function

spoke with someone today who suggested using the PHP mail function. here is a tutorial that discusses how to use it.

It is suppose to be able to handle html as well as plain text and to send attachments but it is suggested to use another application to do that.
