HTML Data Push The data push enables you to send XHTML page content directly to a phone without the overhead of the
phone having to fetch the XHTML.
Use the following format when sending the HTML Data Push:
<Data priority=”X” >Y</Data>
When pushing data to a phone, make sure to send the request to:
http://<Phone IP>/push
