That's actually pretty easy.  If you want

    Content-Type: text/vnd.wap.wml

then you should call

    response.setContentType("text/vnd.wap.xml");

instead of

    response.setContentType("text,vnd.wap.xml");

Note that, to be effective, you must call response.setContentType() *before*
your response has been commited (that is, before the first buffer is flushed).
I make sure this happens in my code by setting the content type before calling
response.getWriter().

Also, you really should update to Tomcat 3.2 -- there have been huge numbers of
bug fixes (plus better performance to boot).
