WML Tags

WML Tags

This section lists the WML tags and tag parameters that can be used to create a menu system.
Table 1 shows the WML tags and tag parameters that can be used to create a menu system. As with other tag-based languages, such as HTML and XML, ending tags should be used to indicate the end of a structure. An example of an ending tag would be </wml>, which indicates the end of a WML script.
Using end tags is required to create well formed and functional WML scripts.
