Table 18 Performed on a suite

Rules:

If the application does not have an associated JAD URL, the Tell-A-Friend option will not appear in the context-sensitive menu.

If the URL plus the application name size exceed the maximum size allowed for an SMS message, the following rules shall be applied, in this order, to truncate the link:

o Remove application name from link, (i.e.: “GP http://www.mot.com/games/gp.jad” shall be truncated to “http://www.mot.com/games/gp.jad”).

o Remove path to the JAD file, keeping only server’s URL and application name. (i.e.: “GP http://www.mot.com/games/gp.jad” shall be truncated to “GP http:// www.mot.com”).

If server’s URL cannot be kept, Tell-A-Friend option shall be disabled.

J2ME applications downloaded through a PC can specify JAD URL using new JAD attribute Mot-Midlet-URL. If this JAD attribute is present, JAM will use the JAD URL specified by this attribute to enable the Tell-A-Friend option.

J2ME applications downloaded through MMS (when this functionality is available on the phone) can specify JAD URL using new JAD attribute Mot- Midlet-URL. If this JAD attribute is present, JAM will use the JAD URL specified by this attribute to enable Tell-AFriend option.

The Figure 12 illustrates the MIDlet Manager and the context-sensitive menus:
