WML Decks

---

WML pages are called DECKS. They are constructed as a set of CARDS, related to each other with links. A typical WML script is as follows:

• The first line shows the WML document is an XML document.


• The second lines shows that the DOCTYPE is defined to be wml, and the DTD is accessed at http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.2.xml.
  
  A Document Type Definition (DTD) is a formal description in XML declaration syntax of a particular type of document. It sets out what names are to be used for the different types of element, where they may occur, and how they all fit together.


• The document content is inside the <wml>...</wml> tags.


• Each card in the document is inside <card>...</card> tags, and actual paragraphs are inside <p>...</p> tags.
