Techniques are provided for servicing requests that are issued in a protocol such as SMS or e-mail, other than the protocol, expected by the service, suc h as HTTP or Java API. For example, many people want to use their mobile devic es to interact with services, which require the ability to have multiple relate d messages in a session. However, their mobile devices do not have protocols that support interacting with such services. One technique provided herein i s to interpose an intermediary between the mobile devices and the services to provide session capabilities on behalf of the mobile devices. In one embodiment, a service returns a web page including menu items and/or hyperlinks. The menu items and hyperlinks are translated into descriptive te xt preceded by a user selectable reference number. The intermediary maintains a session context by saving the selected reference numbers.
