Apache2::WURFLMobile is an implementation of the Apache filter in Perl, The module detects the mobile device and passes the WURFL capabilities on to the other web application as environment variables. It can also be used to resize images on the fly to adapt to the screen size of the mobile device.
A good point to start is: <http://wurfl.sourceforge.net>
I don't try to install in Win32 platform, but I suppose it's run well.

APR::Table
LWP::Simple

INSTALLATION
You need to install and configure Apache 2.x

Before you start to use my module you need to install mod_per 2.x and configure your Apache, this is the right link:

Download - http://perl.apache.org/download/index.html
Documentation - http://perl.apache.org/docs/index.html
The second step is to install the other packages, you can found here:

http://search.cpan.org/

Now you can start to install my package:


1) perl Makefile.PL
2) sudo make install


3) open the file conf/httpd.conf and add this few commands:

#
#Apache Mobile Filter parameter
# 
PerlSetEnv MOBILE_HOME <home path of AMF>
PerlSetEnv CookieCacheSystem <for persist the data (normaly /tmp)>
#
#configure to activate Apache Mobile filter  
# 
PerlModule Apache2::WURFLFilter
PerlTransHandler +Apache2::WURFLFilter
# This is indicate to the filter were are stored the high definition images
PerlSetEnv ResizeImageDirectory /transform 

<Location /mobile/*>

    PerlInputFilterHandler Apache2::ImageRenderFilter 
</Location> 

4) Follow the Instructions the URL is:

http://www.idelfuschini.it/it/apache-mobile-filter-v2x.html

5) Remember to define where to keep the Device Repository WURFL you have two option:

1) Download WURFL.xml here: http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/wurfl.zip and copy into directory you have define into MOBILE_HOME
