Paragraphs

In a WAP phone, everything used, must appear inside a paragraph, whether just plain text, a picture or even a table. This is actually the same as a normal web page, but where a web page will forgive you ignoring the paragraph, a WAP phone will not, so you must use them.

You can align paragraphs to the left, right or center. When you close a paragraph, any alignment is cleared for the next paragraph. The default alignment for a paragraph if it is not stated is to the left.

An example follows...

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">
<wml>

<card id="MainCard" title="This is a first card">
<p align="center">
This is a simple paragraph
</p>

<p>
This is aimed left
</p>

<p align="right">
This is right aligned
</p>
</card>

</wml>
