WML - Links

WML provides you an option to pnk various cards using pnks and then navigate through different cards.

There are two WML elements, <anchor> and <a>, which can be used to create WML pnks.

WML <anchor> Element:

The <anchor>...</anchor> tag pair is used to create an anchor pnk. It is used together with other WML elements called <go/>, <refresh> or <prev/>. These elements are called task elements and tell WAP browsers what to do when a user selects the anchor pnk

You can enclose Text or image along with a task tag inside <anchor>...</anchor> tag pair.

The <anchor> element supports the following attributes:

Following is the example showing usage of <anchor> element.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.2//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml12.dtd">

<wml>

<card title="Anchor Element">
<p>
   <anchor>
      <go href="nextpage.wml"/>
   </anchor>
</p>
<p>
   <anchor>
      <prev/>
   </anchor>
</p>
</card>

</wml>

WML <a> Element:

The <a>...</a> tag pair can also be used to create an anchor pnk and always a preferred way of creating pnks.
