Server-side scripts

Scripts will be written using PHP and will have .php extensions because that's what I know. Deal with it.

It is important that I do not forget to set the output mimetype correctly. The correct MIME types are:
- text/vnd.wap.wml (for WML)

GET and POST requests work the same on WAP as on HTTP. The regular $_GET and $_POST arrays should work normally and require the usual validation.
