Inserting links

There are two types of hyperlinks that can be used in a WAP page. The first is the conventional type of hyperlink, pointing to a new wml page, either on your site, or a page on someone else's WAP site. The other type of hyperlink points to another card in your wml deck. The tag used is <a href> and you insert a # in front of the name if it is a card, and not a normal wml page address.

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 sample text
<br/><br/>
<a href="page2.wml">Click to go to page two</a>
</p>
</card>

</wml>
