Kannel is a gateway, not a content server. It cannot know file
extensions.
(Or tags, before parsing the content!). But does see response headers.

That's true. Kannel compiles content with wml compiler, if Content-Type
is
text/vnd.wap.wml. (If Content-Type text/vnd.wap.wmlscript, it uses
wmlscript
compiler.)

Yes, Kannel does use Gnome XML. But decisions are based on Content-Type,
as I
said previously.
