If you enter the URL into the telephone, that should download the SIS file and give you the option to install it. It sounds like you do not have the MIME type setup correctly on your web server. The MIME type returned by the web server should be "application/vnd.symbian.install". To push the SIS file out to a phone, you send a WAP Push message pointing to the URL on the web server. You can also post the SIS file through the "Send Multimedia WAP Push" function in NowSMS. The Multimedia WAP Push function is useful because it uses dynamically generated URLs which you can expire, making it more difficult for users to forward your SIS file to others. See http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/4949.html for more info on Multimedia WAP Push. -bn | |||

A SIS file is a Symbian install file. I don't have any real experience with application development on a Symbian platform ... but I'd assume that any Symbian application would need to be packaged in this type of format for distribution. I'd suggest you search for web sites that deal with Symbian application development for more information. If you have a SIS file, and want to put it on a web server, then you need to configure your web server so that the MIME type that is returned by the web server for the SIS file is "application/vnd.symbian.install". -bn | |||
