In regards to my Citysearch API module, tracking clicks from mobile devices requires that a device id or phone number be included in the javascript arguments. I don't know where to find this information. My mobile phone has been borrowed for the day so I can only emulate on firefox. I've looked through the output of phpinfo() and $requestingDevice->getAllCapabilities(); but can find nothing that looks appropriate. I suspect that the wurfl API contains a function I'm unaware of. My google searches have so far come up empty.

Hi Scott, Sorry to disappoint you, but you won't get anything consistent from a phone browser in terms of device identity. There are two things that might help: 1. There is likely to be a x-something request header added by the WAP gateway which will be something the telco could use to identify the subscriber. This would probably work for uniqueness. 2. A 'trusted' app installed on the phone can access some identity information and send it in an http request, but that means basically writing a browser from scratch and going throught a long, painful and expensive verification process. Essentially, you are a victim of the mobile phone security model(s). Not very cheerful, but I hope this helps.
