Hi! I'm not sure if this discussion falls into this forum catergory, my apologies if I'm wrong.

I am currently self-learning on how to program a wap site with XHTML MP for use with Mobile phones for online web surfing. I am interested in gaining knowledge on how to integrate XHTML MP with scripts (php, jsp, example scripts ?) that is able to work with some basic functionalities.

For example:
User registration
Log in/out
Uploading/showing pictures
Editing/viewing user profiles.

I have a personal website that supports mySQL, php and sql databases that I can try it out with.

Would be appreciate, and hope that someone who knows how-to can point me to the correct direction where I'm heading.

Perhaps a more appropriate place to ask this question would be in the PHP forum or the Other server-side languages forum.

Welcome here genecola!

Before we can reall point you in the right direction, we need to know a bit more about your currents skills.
Your first step will obviously be te learn valid XHTML MP is (good guide to that here: http://developer.openwave.com/dvl/support/documentation/guides_and_references/xhtml-mp_style_guide/ )
once you master writing valid clientside code, you can go to the next step --> dynamically creating your XHTML MP. Which is exactly the same as dynamically creating HTML or XHTML. Your serverside code will be exactly the same, but the code you generate will need to be valid XHTML MP.
There are a lott of good 'getting started' tutorials on PHP at
http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Tips_and_Tutorials/Introduction_to_PHP/index.html
and a lott of tutorials about formprocessing, uservalidation etc at http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Tips_and_Tutorials/index.html
your next step will be to add a database-layer to the mix.
Also well covered at http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Tips_and_Tutorials/index.html and required for most userauthentication systems
