WML Links and Images
Links
A WML card can be set up to display the anchor functions of WML.
The <anchor> tag
The <anchor> tag always has a task ("go", "prev", or "refresh")
specified. The task defines what to do when the user selects the link. In this
example, when the user selects the "Next page" link, the task says
"go to the file test.wml":
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">
<wml>
<card title="Anchor Tag">
<p><anchor>Next page
<go href="test.wml"/></anchor></p>
</card>
</wml> |
The <a> tag
The <a> tag always performs a "go" task, with no variables. The example below
does the same as the <anchor> tag example:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">
<wml>
<card title="A Tag">
<p><a href="test.wml">Next page</a></p>
</card>
</wml> |
Image
A WML card can be set up to display an image:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">
<wml>
<card title="Image">
<p>This is an image
<img src="/images/stickman.wbmp" alt="stickman" />
in a paragraph</p>
</card>
</wml> |
The result will look something like this in a mobile phone:
------ Image ------
This is an image  in a paragraph
|
Note that .wbmp is the only image type that can be displayed in a WAP browser.
